What type of background check is required for a gun purchase in Connecticut?

  1. Federal only

  2. State only

  3. Both federal and state

  4. No background check is required

The correct answer is: Both federal and state

In Connecticut, both federal and state background checks are required for a gun purchase. This is to ensure that the buyer meets the requirements set by both the federal government and the state of Connecticut. Options A and B are incorrect because they do not consider both federal and state requirements. Option D is incorrect because background checks are required in Connecticut for gun purchases.
