What must individuals do to sell a handgun privately in Tennessee?

  1. Complete a background check on the buyer

  2. Register the sale with the state

  3. Ensure the buyer is legally allowed to possess a firearm

  4. No specific legal requirement

The correct answer is: Ensure the buyer is legally allowed to possess a firearm

In Tennessee, individuals who wish to sell a handgun privately are required to ensure that the buyer is legally allowed to possess a firearm. This means that the seller must take reasonable steps to verify that the buyer is not prohibited from owning a handgun, such as being a convicted felon or having a history of domestic violence. By confirming the eligibility of the buyer, the seller helps prevent firearms from falling into the wrong hands and promotes responsible gun ownership.
