What type of firearm safety course is required for obtaining a handgun carry permit in Tennessee?

NRA-certified firearm safety course
State-approved online safety course
Hunter education course
None of the above

The correct answer is: State-approved online safety course

To obtain a handgun carry permit in Tennessee, applicants are required to complete a state-approved firearm safety course. The key aspect of this requirement is that the course must be designed and approved by the state, ensuring that it meets specific standards for safety training and legal knowledge regarding handgun use and carry. This emphasis on state approval guarantees that the course adequately prepares individuals on both safe handling practices and the laws surrounding firearm usage in Tennessee. Courses that are NRA-certified or hunter education courses may offer valuable information and training in firearm safety, but they do not fulfill the specific legal requirement for a handgun carry permit in Tennessee unless they have been explicitly approved by the state. Thus, the most accurate answer focuses on state-approved courses that cater specifically to the requirements of the handgun carry permit process.
