What is required to transport a firearm in a vehicle in Tennessee?

  1. The firearm must be unloaded and locked in a case

  2. A valid Handgun Carry Permit

  3. No specific requirements

  4. Firearms must be visible at all times

The correct answer is: No specific requirements

In Tennessee, the law provides certain flexibility when it comes to transporting firearms in a vehicle. Individuals are allowed to transport firearms without any specific requirements concerning their visibility or whether they are unloaded. This means that as long as the firearm is not being used in the commission of a crime, you do not need to meet additional criteria to have it in your vehicle. While there are regulations related to handgun carry permits and transporting firearms in ways that enhance safety and reduce risk, the overall guideline allows for some discretion, which is why no specific requirements are mandated during transport. Options that suggest the necessity of permits or specific methods of securing the firearm do not align with the broader legal framework in Tennessee regarding transportation by law-abiding citizens.
