To whom must you report the loss or theft of a firearm in Tennessee?

The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation
Your local law enforcement agency
The Tennessee Department of Safety & Homeland Security
No report is necessary

The correct answer is: Your local law enforcement agency

Reporting the loss or theft of a firearm to your local law enforcement agency is correct. In Tennessee, it is essential to inform law enforcement to have a formal record of the incident. This reporting can aid in the recovery of the firearm and help prevent its misuse in criminal activities. Local agencies have the resources and authority needed to handle such reports effectively. While other organizations may play a role in firearm regulations or public safety, they are not specifically designated for reporting a loss or theft. Therefore, contacting your local law enforcement agency is the appropriate action to take when a firearm is lost or stolen.
