Which statement is true regarding the sale of firearms between private parties in Tennessee?

No background check is required
A handgun carry permit is needed by the buyer
The sale must be processed through a licensed firearms dealer
A state permit is required for the sale

The correct answer is: No background check is required

The correct statement regarding the sale of firearms between private parties in Tennessee is that no background check is required. In Tennessee, private sales of firearms do not mandate that the seller perform a background check on the buyer. This means that individuals can sell their firearms directly to other private individuals without going through a licensed dealer or undergoing any formal background check process. While other statements suggest regulations that may apply in different contexts, they do not reflect the current requirements for private sales. For example, requiring a buyer to have a handgun carry permit or necessitating that the sale go through a licensed firearms dealer would pertain to specific situations and regulatory environments that do not encompass the general framework for private sales.
