  1. An online course

  2. A course certified by the Tennessee Department of Safety

  3. Any course provided by a licensed firearms instructor

  4. A or B

The correct answer is: A or B

To obtain a Handgun Carry Permit in Tennessee, applicants must complete a firearm safety course that is either an online course or a course certified by the Tennessee Department of Safety. This requirement ensures that individuals applying for the permit receive proper training and understanding of firearms safety and use. The courses are designed to cover critical topics including the safe handling of firearms, understanding laws related to carrying and using a firearm, and conflict resolution. Courses certified by the Tennessee Department of Safety are particularly significant because they have specific standards and content designed to meet Tennessee's firearm regulations. An online course can also be acceptable as long as it is recognized and meets those standards. Hence, selecting an option that includes either an approved online course or a course certified by the state aligns with the requirements laid out for the permit application.
