AN ACT ESTABLISHING UNIFORM APPLICATION REQUIREMENTS FOR A TEMPORARY STATE PERMIT TO CARRY A PISTOL OR REVOLVER.

SB 1173 standardizes the application process for temporary permits to carry pistols or revolvers across all Connecticut towns and cities. It requires applicants to submit a notarized, unmodified application form; proof of lawful U.S. presence; a certificate from a pistol safety course; and two fingerprint sets for background checks. This bill directly affects individuals seeking temporary carry permits by mandating consistent requirements instead of varying local rules. The key change eliminates differences in application forms, documentation, and fingerprint procedures between municipalities. The goal is to create uniform standards for processing these permits statewide.
