Is open carry of handguns permitted in Connecticut with a valid permit?

  1. Yes, without restrictions

  2. Yes, but with restrictions

  3. No

  4. Only for law enforcement

The correct answer is: Yes, but with restrictions

While Connecticut does allow for open carry with a valid permit, there are certain restrictions in place. For example, open carry is not permitted in any state parks or state forests, and local authorities may choose to limit or prohibit open carry in their jurisdictions. Additionally, the gun must be unloaded and securely wrapped if carried in a vehicle. Therefore, option B, "Yes, but with restrictions" is the most accurate choice. Answers A and D are incorrect as they do not acknowledge the restrictions in place. Answer C is also incorrect as it does not account for open carry with a permit.
