Is it legal to possess a firearm in an establishment serving alcohol in Tennessee if you have a carry permit?

  1. No, under no circumstances

  2. Yes, unless the establishment has a 'No Guns' sign

  3. Yes, but only during certain hours

  4. Yes, if not consuming alcohol

The correct answer is: Yes, unless the establishment has a 'No Guns' sign

In Tennessee, it is illegal to possess a firearm in an establishment serving alcohol, unless the establishment has a 'No Guns' sign. This means that options A, C, and D are incorrect. Option A states that it is never legal to possess a firearm in an establishment serving alcohol, which is not entirely true. Option C states that possession of a firearm is only legal during certain hours, but this is not a requirement under Tennessee law. Option D states that possession is legal if not consuming alcohol, but this is also not a requirement; the presence of a 'No Guns' sign overrides the consumption of alcohol. Therefore, the correct answer is B.
