The weapon must be unloaded and the ammo for it not in the immediate area of the weapon or you. 39-17-1308(a)(1) The mags being loaded are probably fine, as long as they are not stored with or near the weapon or you.

Now you're getting it....

I think this thread is along the lines that the Admin has been closing down. If he wants to re-open it he can do so, but I am closing it for now.

I know that an AG opinion is not that same as a Judge's ruling, but it is a place to start. If the AG felt it was legal, then chances are that his office would not prosecute even if an arrest was made. It depends on which part of the law you are talking about on whether just how clear it is. In one part it is clear that TN intends to only issue permits to those 21 and over, but in another part it seems clear that TN intends to honor any other states' permit so long as that permit was issued according to that states' laws/regulations regardless of age or other criteria. The part of the law that says TN will recognize other states permits does go so far as to say that TN will honor it only for the carry of a handgun, not any other weapon that the permit may allow. So, they did put restrictions on it, but age was not one of those restrictions. But...cosidering you once worked as a LEO and based on your attitude and interpretation of it...then yes, keeping bail money at hand may be warranted.

Well actually at one time I think you could download it of their website or at least look at it, but not now.

With the cop on the street? Maybe, maybe not. Depends on how he may interpret the law or if he even tries to. With the judge? I'd say there is a better chance than with the LEO. I would definitely like to see a AG opinion on this to be honest.

Not the first time the DOS website and the personnel at a DOS office have said different things. To be honest it has been so long since I got mine, it was when the DOS still came to every county in the state at least twice a month. ...oh and I agree filing out at home would be easier....but the state has never really been concerned about what is easier...lol Hope you can get the ball rolling soon!!

AFAIK that is always the way it has been. The DOS are the only ones with the applications and they are filed out as you are applying, therefore needing all the required paperwork. I know some DL services can be done at county offices, but don't think any with a HCP can be.

Not to my knowledge. You may want to check http://opencarry.org/

LOL...did you at least use your time off to brush up on a few things?

That was discussed in another thread. It seemed like most agree that someone under 21 can carry in TN as long as they have a valid permit from another state. TN Law simply says they will honor all facially valid out of state permits. It doesn't put an age restriction on that recognition. Guess it is like some of the states that only issue CC permits to those 21 or over, but allow OC by those 18 or older...

I don't really see anything she would have to be worried about. If the husband was not supposed to handle weapons and/or depending on he disposed of them he could be in trouble. AFAIK it really doesn't take much to get at least a Temporary Order of Protection. Just tell the jugde she is scared of him and why. Be careful......

Well that's all they can do isn't it? I mean they can't pass a law that will be added to the T.C.A. about this. Resolutions do mean something, right? It was a resolution that made Nafieh Speaker Emiritus.....

Not sure about loaded/unloaded, but firearms and knives are legal at "public recreational property" when possesed (not necessarly carried) for the purposes of "Gun and Knife Show" 39-17-1311((1)(G)(iii)

Well I admit I am not as verse in the individual parts and/or assembly of firearms as many on this board. But from reading Section 4 and Section 5 of the bill a receiver could be considered a "significant part" of a firearm and therefore make it regulated by the feds. Hopefully someone with more understanding of the law and firearms will chime in.

If I understand all of this right...(big if) the only way the feds have any control over firearms is if they or parts of them are moved across state lines, or in other words interstate commerce. So if I firearm is solely constructed within a state's boundaries and never leaves that states, federal laws/rules do not apply to that firearm.

It wouldn't....Federal law/regulations would trump state law. So really wouldn't help me working on DoD property either...
