Tennessee Handgun Permit Travel Guide 2010
Thank you for your purchase of this download publication. I
believe that anyone who has been issued a Tennessee Handgun
Permit, needs to know and understand the restrictions they face
in Tennessee, and the states that honor the Tennessee Handgun
Permit. This is why this guide is so useful to Tennessee Handgun
Permit Holders. Every day you strap on a gun for self-protection,
you may not use the gun in a self-defense incident but; every day
you are exposed to laws that could affect your ability to carry.
The 1st section of this publication lists states that honor the
Tennessee Handgun Permit. Turn to the page to read their codes
and restrictions. At the top of each page you will see the type of
handgun carry allowed in the state. If you see this note (concealed
carry suggested), that means the state might have some local codes
that are imposed about the wearing of a pistol in the open
(exposed). Because it is very difficult to find the regulations on
this subject for every county or municipality, it is suggested that
you carry your handgun concealed. The next section shows the
laws and restrictions in their state. I have made notes regardingcarry in restaurants or establishments that sell alcohol, because so
many people asked for more information on this subject. At the
bottom of each state page you will see the regulatory agency for
their state. Please contact them directly if you have any questions
or concerns about carrying in their state. I have found that each
state agency responds well to questions, because they want you to
know about carrying in their state.
The 2nd section lists states that do not honor the TN Handgun
Permit. This section will tell you how to transport your handgun
through each state. Some states also have an open carry law, that
information is included.

LEGISLATIVE INTENT; FINDINGS.--This act is intended to codify
the long-standing legislative policy of the state that individualcitizens have a constitutional right to keep and bear arms, thatthey have a constitutional right to possess and keep legally ownedfirearms within their motor vehicles for self-defense and otherlawful purposes, and that these rights are not abrogated by virtueof a citizen becoming a customer, employee, or invitee of abusiness entity. It is the finding of the Legislature that a citizen'slawful possession, transportation, and secure keeping of firearmsand ammunition within his or her motor vehicle is essential to the
exercise of the fundamental constitutional right to keep and beararms and the constitutional right of self-defense. The Legislaturefinds that protecting and preserving these rights is essential to theexercise of freedom and individual responsibility.

State Wildlife Areas and State ParksAs a general matter, assume that State Parks will be off limits forconcealed carry.

While there is no blanket disallowance for the carryingof firearms into state parks, DWP has a regulation which allows
them to regulate such an activity through the posting of the park.Wildlife areas are a different matter. Since these areas aregenerally allowed to be lawfully hunted upon, the concealed carryof weapons would be allowed while lawfully hunting in and onwildlife areas. See, K.S.A. 21-4201(c)(2).7.) Federal lands: As a general matter, carrying concealedweapons into National Parks, Monuments, and all other lands willbe prohibited. See, 36 C.F.R. 2.4.

appropriate officials in order to determine the legality of possessingweapons at said site.8.)
