What type of firearms certification is required to purchase a handgun in Connecticut?
NRA Basic Pistol Course certification
Connecticut Hunter Safety Course certification
Connecticut Pistol Permit
No certification is required
The correct answer is: Connecticut Pistol Permit
Although the NRA Basic Pistol Course and Connecticut Hunter Safety Course certifications may involve firearm training, these certifications are not specifically required for purchasing a handgun in Connecticut. A Connecticut Pistol Permit, on the other hand, is specifically designated for purchasing handguns and is required by law. Additionally, the option of "No certification is required" is incorrect because Connecticut does require a pistol permit for handgun purchases.
