Is a permit required to carry a stun gun or Taser in Connecticut?

  1. No, it's not required

  2. Yes, a general firearms permit is needed

  3. Yes, but only a special permit

  4. It depends on the age of the carrier

The correct answer is: Yes, a general firearms permit is needed

Yes, a general firearms permit is needed to carry a stun gun or Taser in Connecticut. In the state of Connecticut, these devices are classified as dangerous weapons requiring a permit. Therefore, individuals must obtain a general firearms permit to legally carry a stun gun or Taser in the state. This requirement is in place to ensure that individuals who carry these potentially dangerous weapons are trained and authorized to do so. Option A is incorrect as a permit is required to carry a stun gun or Taser in Connecticut. Option C is incorrect because it suggests that a special permit is sufficient, when in fact, a general firearms permit is required. Option D is also incorrect because the permit requirement for carrying a stun gun or Taser in Connecticut is not based on the age of the carrier, but on the possession of a general firearms permit.
