TENNESSEE CONSIDERING ALLOWING CONCEALED CARRY OF GUNS WITHOUT A PERMIT
Tennessee lawmakers will consider soon allowing most adults 21 and older to carry firearms concealed without a license.
Governor Bill Lee supported the idea last year, though the proposal and others were put on hold amid the pandemic.
The push in Tennessee came after the General Assembly relaxed the state’s handgun law in 2020 by allowing people to obtain a concealed-carry-only handgun permit that didn’t require them to demonstrate the ability to fire a weapon.
