What is the minimum age to apply for a Gun Permit in Connecticut?

  1. 16 years old

  2. 18 years old

  3. 21 years old

  4. 25 years old

The correct answer is: 21 years old

In Connecticut, the minimum age to apply for a Gun Permit is 21 years old. Option A and B are incorrect because 16 and 18 years old is below the legal age for obtaining a gun permit. Option D is also incorrect because 25 years old is older than the minimum age required. Connecticut law requires individuals to be at least 21 years old to obtain a gun permit. This is likely because at 21 years old, an individual is considered a fully developed adult and is legally allowed to purchase and possess firearms in the state.
