In Tennessee, is it legal to openly carry a handgun without a permit?

  1. Yes, in all cases

  2. No, in all cases

  3. Yes, but only in rural areas

  4. Yes, but only on private property

The correct answer is: No, in all cases

While open carry is generally allowed in Tennessee, it is only legal with a permit. This applies to all areas, not just in rural areas or on private property. So options A, C, and D are incorrect.
