To carry a concealed handgun within the state of Connecticut, all dwellers must get a Pistol Permit.
In Connecticut, you have to be twenty-one years old to carry a concealed firearm.
Step 1: Complete a firearms safety training course that is endorsed by Connecticut General Statute 29-28.
Step 2: Fill out and submit a State Permit to Carry Handguns and Revolvers gotten from a Pistol Permit location.
Step 3: Submit your request and pay out the $70 application charges.
Step 4: Begin and complete background scrutiny successfully.
Step 5: In between eight weeks after getting the application, the issuing body will either accept or reject it.
Instead of accepting permits from other states, Connecticut allows any nonresident of the state with a secret (concealed) carry license granted by their home state to request their Pistol License
