What is the minimum age to legally purchase a shotgun or rifle in Tennessee?

  1. 18 years old

  2. 21 years old

  3. 16 years old

  4. There is no minimum age

The correct answer is: 18 years old

The minimum age to legally purchase a shotgun or rifle in Tennessee is 18 years old. This is the legal minimum age requirement set by the state. Option B is incorrect because 21 years old is the minimum age for purchasing a handgun, not a shotgun or rifle. Option C is incorrect because 16 years old is the minimum age for obtaining a hunting license in Tennessee, but does not apply to purchasing a firearm. Option D is incorrect because there is indeed a minimum age requirement for purchasing a shotgun or rifle in Tennessee.
