Which of the following is a requirement for purchasing a firearm in Tennessee?

  1. Proof of Tennessee residency

  2. A valid hunting license

  3. A federal firearms license

  4. Completion of a firearms training course in another state

The correct answer is: Proof of Tennessee residency

To purchase a firearm in Tennessee, you must be a resident of the state and provide proof of your residency. Option B may seem like a valid requirement as it relates to hunting, but it is not a requirement for purchasing a firearm in the state. Option C refers to a separate license for selling or manufacturing firearms, which is not required for individuals purchasing a firearm. Option D may seem like a plausible requirement, but the training course must be completed within the state of Tennessee, not in another state. Therefore, option A is the correct answer.
