What is the legal blood alcohol limit while carrying a firearm in public in Tennessee?

  1. 0.0%

  2. 0.02%

  3. 0.08%

  4. 0.10%

The correct answer is: 0.08%

In Tennessee, the legal blood alcohol limit while carrying a firearm in public is set at 0.08%. This aligns with the state's laws concerning the operation of motor vehicles, where a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) at or above 0.08% is considered impaired. Carrying a firearm while under the influence can lead to dangerous situations, further emphasizing the importance of maintaining this legal threshold. Selecting a higher BAC limit, like 0.10%, would not be compliant with state regulations regarding responsible firearm carry. Lower limits, such as 0.02% or 0.00%, are not legally enforced for firearm carriers but emphasize the general recommendation to avoid alcohol consumption when handling firearms for safety reasons.
