I don't have a link to cite prepared, but I was reading on the subject and came across something I wasn't aware of. I'm hoping someone has it handy. The CT law on carrying a firearm while intoxicated refers to a loaded firearm specifically, not just a firearm. Am I correct in thinking this means if you are carrying and decide to have a few drinks that you can simply unload the gun and you are not in violation of the law? And what about the ammo? Can it then be on your person? For simplicity sake, lets say you are carrying condition 3. Can you simply pop out the magazine and slide it in your back pocket and be legal?
My guess is that it's parallel to open carry. it's legal but all but the most informed police officers will try to pinch you for it anyway.
