Can a person carry a handgun in a vehicle without a permit in Connecticut?

Yes, if unloaded and locked in the trunk
No, under no circumstances
Yes, anywhere in the vehicle
Yes, if the person is transporting it to a shooting range

The correct answer is: No, under no circumstances

In Connecticut, it is illegal for a person to carry a handgun in a vehicle without a permit under any circumstances. The state requires individuals to have a valid permit to carry a handgun, whether it is loaded or unloaded, inside a vehicle. Therefore, option B is correct. Options A, C, and D are incorrect because they suggest scenarios where carrying a handgun in a vehicle without a permit would be permissible, which is not the case according to Connecticut gun laws.
