Who is eligible to apply for a gun permit in Connecticut?

Anyone over the age of 18
Residents only with no criminal record
Residents and non-residents with valid identification
Anyone without a felony conviction

The correct answer is: Residents only with no criminal record

Residents only with no criminal record are eligible to apply for a gun permit in Connecticut. This requirement ensures that firearms are in the hands of responsible individuals who have not committed any criminal offenses. Option A, anyone over the age of 18, is not correct as the age requirement alone does not make someone eligible to apply for a gun permit. Option C, residents and non-residents with valid identification, is not correct as Connecticut typically requires applicants to be residents of the state. Option D, anyone without a felony conviction, is not correct as even individuals without felony convictions must still meet all the eligibility requirements, including being a resident with no criminal record.
