Are private firearms sales regulated in Tennessee?

Yes, all sales require a background check
Yes, but only for handguns
No, private sales are not regulated
Sales are regulated only at gun shows

The correct answer is: No, private sales are not regulated

Tennessee does not regulate or require background checks for private firearm sales. This means that individuals can sell guns to other individuals without going through a licensed dealer or conducting a background check. Option A is incorrect because there is no requirement for background checks for all sales. Option B is incorrect because it only mentions regulation for one type of firearm, handguns. Option D is incorrect because it only mentions regulation at gun shows, but private sales outside of gun shows do not have any regulation.
