Which of the following is a requirement for obtaining a firearm permit in Connecticut?

  1. Completion of a firearms training course

  2. A written recommendation from a local police chief

  3. Ownership of a firearm safe

  4. Passing a physical fitness test

The correct answer is: Completion of a firearms training course

Obtaining a firearm permit in Connecticut requires completion of a firearms training course. This is because the state requires applicants to demonstrate a basic understanding of firearm safety and proper use before granting a permit. A written recommendation from a local police chief is not a requirement for obtaining a firearm permit in Connecticut, though it may be a helpful endorsement. Ownership of a firearm safe is not a requirement, but it is highly recommended for responsible firearm ownership. Passing a physical fitness test is also not a requirement for obtaining a firearm permit in Connecticut, as this is not directly related to responsible firearm ownership.
