What is the term of a Tennessee handgun carry permit?

  1. 5 years

  2. 8 years

  3. 10 years

  4. Indefinite

The correct answer is: 8 years

The correct answer is B. In Tennessee, a handgun carry permit is issued for a term of 8 years. During this period, the permit holder is legally allowed to carry a handgun in accordance with Tennessee state laws. It is important for permit holders to be aware of the expiration date of their permit to ensure compliance with the law. Options A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not reflect the actual term length of a Tennessee handgun carry permit as outlined by state regulations.
