Connecticut Carry

Posted on by

Devoted to educating and protecting our rights in Connecticut.

  • 2012 Started
  • a 501(c)(4) non-profit organization
  • non-partisan, grassroots

Connecticut citizens currently possess in excess of 170,000 pistol permits. We intend to increase that amount through education and hard work. Many people have experienced problems, delays and wrongful denials in their efforts to obtain their Connecticut State Pistol Permit. We will work to change that. The law is currently on our side, and the various local issuing authorities around the state need to obey the laws they have sworn to uphold. We must stay polite and professional, but we must always be aware our rights and we must always hold the authorities to the laws of our state. We have that duty to our fellow citizens and to future generations.
