How long is a Tennessee Handgun Carry Permit valid before it needs to be renewed?

  1. 4 years

  2. 5 years

  3. 8 years

  4. 10 years

The correct answer is: 8 years

The correct duration for the validity of a Tennessee Handgun Carry Permit is five years. After this period, the permit must be renewed for continuing legal carry of a handgun in public. It is important for permit holders to be aware of this requirement to ensure compliance with state laws and maintain their rights to carry a handgun. In Tennessee, frequent regulation updates can sometimes confuse firearm users about the validity and renewal process, so always checking the latest state statutes or the Tennessee Department of Safety and Homeland Security is advisable for the most accurate and current information.
