Well done, Tennessee!

Outstanding. Good work Land of Orange!:)

Just in time for my visit in September (Memphis). Pistols only? So my tiger's fork is a no-no?:D

[Kcustom45]

Fantastic another state like Indiana, and several other which I can't think of right now.

[tiberius]

Congrats,

Finally there is something good even this Florida Gator can say about Tennesee:D

[capbuster]

I have family in Tullahoma and my oldest son is living in Memphis so this is great news. Thanks for sharing.

[glockten]

I wonder if Alabama will honor Tennessee permits now.

[OEF_VET]

I have but one thing to say:



WE RULE!!!!!!!!

*does a little dance*

Now, if everyone else would accept Tennessee's permit....

Does the growing (?) number of states that have CCW reciprocity have any positive effect on other states that don't have (maybe being forced to have) reciprocity?


In other words if 25-30 states all have reciprocity, is it likely that those who don't would be able to hold out?

Could NJ be forced to honor my PA license?

What a concept, trusting law abiding citizens to exercise thier rights and to take resposibility for their own personal safety. Tennessee is a better and safer place because of it.

Now if we can only get the law changed so we can carry in establishments that serve alcohol. Something visitors might want to remember if your state is different.

[El Tejon]

Keith, thanks for the reminder. Yes, those of us in less restrictive states may forget that. "But, officer, I was just having a Kingfisher with my chicken makhani. I do it all the time in Yankeeland."

Will be down in a couple of months. I'll force myself to read Orange statutes before leaving.

"But, officer, I was just having a Kingfisher with my chicken makhani. I do it all the time in Yankeeland."

Just to clarify, a person carrying concealed my not drink while carrying in TN. Furthermore, a person carrying concealed may not carry into a business that sells/serves alcohol for on premise consumption. One may carry into a store that sells booze, but restaurants that sell are off limits.

Tennessee will be happy to have you and your firearm El Tejon.

And you will be just in time, Football time in Tennessee starts in 45 days.:D

Alabama honors permits from all states that honor theirs.

[Carlos Cabeza]

Go Vols ! :cool: Maybe we can see a nationwide trend in the near future.

They are working on it. I feel pretty good about the next session. Fingers crossed.

Faustulus: They are working on it. I feel pretty good about the next session. Fingers crossed.

I hope you are right, but do you have any specific reason to be hopeful about the next session? Why should it be any different from this session?

[faustulus]

IIRC it died in committee this year because of a political squabble, along with about six other bills. But it seems to have growing support and the GA has made some good amendments in the past. That and there is always hope. :)

[Dave R]

I wonder how Al Gore feels about TN passing this.

Sorry............ Al who?

[Darrin]

You know..........Al. Helloooooooo, inventor of the Internet? Duh! :rolleyes:


:uhoh:




faustulus, you're in Middle TN? COME SHOOTING WITH US! :)
