What is the penalty for carrying a firearm without a valid permit in Connecticut?

  1. Fine only

  2. Imprisonment only

  3. Both fine and imprisonment

  4. Community service

The correct answer is: Both fine and imprisonment

In Connecticut, carrying a firearm without a valid permit is considered a criminal offense. This means that it can result in both a fine and imprisonment. Option A and B are incorrect because they do not reflect the full consequences that an individual can face for this offense. Option D, community service, may also be ordered in addition to a fine and/or imprisonment, but it is not the sole penalty for carrying a firearm without a valid permit in Connecticut. Therefore, the most accurate answer is C.
