Yes,...time to go.

Jonnin, I think it DOES say that, because of the comma after "possession".  But what I have is apparently outdated or inaccurate.

Thanks very much guys.

Does this say solid copper bullets are illegal?   Tenn. Code Ann. § 39-17-1304(b). Tennessee also prohibits the possession, use or attempted use of “restricted firearm ammunition” in the commission or attempted commission of a crime of violence. Tenn. Code Ann. § 39-17-1304(a), (b). “Restricted firearm ammunition” is any cartridge containing a bullet coated with a plastic substance other than a lead or lead alloy core, or a jacketed bullet with other than a lead or lead alloy core, or a cartridge of which the bullet itself is wholly composed of a metal or metal alloy other than lead. Tenn. Code Ann. § 39-17-1301(13). This definition does not include shotgun shells or solid plastic bullets. 

I've been carrying regularly since I moved here from Maryland. I've just been reading up on the law and it appears to say that  solid copper bullets are illegal!  So, I guess I'm asking:  Is it true that I cannot load up with Buffalo Barnes ammo?   Thanks for any info.  I understand what I read, I just find it hard to believe.   John
