Hey guys im looking into getting into shooting more. As of now i have been shooting with other people at the range a few times and have used air guns and .22s lot for shooting practice and varmin hunting. I am looking into getting my first gun and possibly ccw. I have shot .45's and .40's a few times as well as a lot of .22. I live and connecticut and want to know how much I should expect to pay for class and permits. I was aslo thinking i would start with a .22 such as a marlin or 10/22 i have shot mainly a marlin .22 and never a 10/22 and i would also like to get a .22 pistol to practice shooting with as that is what i would rather shot. Ideas of this would be something like as 22/45.
So i know this is all scattered thoughts but my main question is how much do you think it will cost me and what am i going to have to deal with in CT as far as regulation go as well as suggestions on where to take these classes i may need.

Thanks
