Is Open Carry of firearms allowed in Connecticut with a valid permit?

Yes, without any restrictions
Yes, but only in rural areas
Yes, but with some restrictions
No, open carry is prohibited

The correct answer is: Yes, but with some restrictions

While open carry of firearms is allowed in Connecticut with a valid permit, there are some restrictions that must be followed. This includes not carrying a firearm in certain public places such as schools, state parks, and buildings that have permanent security checkpoints. Additionally, open carry is not allowed in any vehicle. Therefore, option C is the most accurate choice because while open carry is permitted, there are certain limitations and restrictions in place. Option A is incorrect because open carry is not without any restrictions in Connecticut. Option B is also incorrect because the allowance of open carry is not limited to rural areas. Option D is incorrect because open carry with a valid permit is permitted in Connecticut.
