Tennessee Firearms Association Warns One State Senate Bill Does Not Comply with Second Amendment

Members of the Nashville-based Tennessee Firearms Association on Wednesday said members of the Tennessee General Assembly are considering three permit-less carry bills, but one of them does not fully comply with the Second Amendment.

TFA Executive Director John Harris told followers by email that the bill to which he refers, Senate Bill 765, is scheduled to make its way to the Tennessee State Senate floor Thursday. The Tennessee General Assembly’s website identifies the sponsor as State Sen. Jack Johnson (R-Franklin).

  1. When I moved from the sunshine state, where I had a concealed permit, I asked about the carry permit in Tennessee. No transfers, take the class again, would not accept dd214. I said, ok no problem, and I have carried in Tennessee everywhere with no problem, even pulled over a cpl times and told the cop I was armed. But I would imagine in the more populated areas it wouldn't be that easy.
