The correct answer is: No

In Tennessee, open carry of a handgun without a permit is not legal. This means individuals are required to have a valid handgun carry permit to openly carry a handgun in public places in the state. While Tennessee does allow for concealed carry with a permit, open carry without a permit is not permitted under the current laws in the state.
