Default Is Tennessee must notify?

Will be going through the Smokies into TN tomorrow for a few days. Anything I need to know about carry laws, statewide or local?
I don’t smoke or drink so got that covered. Have multiple state permits.

My understanding, worth what you paid for it, is that there is no duty to inform in Tennessee . . .

You don't have to notify in Tn.

"If" you have a valid carry permit you can carry open or concealed here. Also, if you have a carry permit you can carry in the Smokies National Park or in any of the State Parks.


Ladder.....Hope you have an enjoyable trip to Tennessee.

Have a good, safe trip. You'll pass not too far from us on your way to GSMNP.

Does that pertain to having a TN carry permit or one from any other state?

As far as I know, my MA LTC is not honored anywhere but here in MA.

It's my understanding that a MA permit is honored in TN. At least according to: http://www.handgunlaw.us/states/massachusetts.pdf

Thanks.
We’re passing Asheville on the way to Gatlinburg for a few days, then back down thru the GSMNP( with some stops)on the way to Cherokee for a casino day, and on to Asheville for two days, and back home.
I haven’t been that way in about 4 years or so, looking forward to it.

ladder13,

Thanks for notifying us that your coming to the Great State of Tennessee. You may want to visit Bud's Gun Shop just off of the GSMNP exit in Sevierville, TN located at 2270 Two Rivers Blvd.

No, I do not work for Buds and no animals were harmed while typing this reply.

Have fun!

I almost forgot about Smokey Mountain Knife Works. A must see for the blade enthusiast !

Casinos. Sovereign Tribal land. Might want to check on how or if your permit applies on the Reservation.

James, check out this link....it looks like your MA permit is good in quite a few states, plus ones which don't require a permit at all, like mine (WV). I tried to copy the map, couldn't, but here is the link.

Al the blue states, plus tan Michigan should be good.

http://www.handgunlaw.us/states/massachusetts.pdf

Of course, you should check the websites of each of the states to double check the accuracy of this website.

Best Regards, Les

I second that recommendation. Most guys who like guns are going to love SMKW. Yes, they have some touristy stuff, but they also have some really wonderful knives there, and an amazing selection, too. Allow some time, the place is big, and packed with lots of really cool stuff!!

Best Regards, Les

I have to recommend both Bud's and SMKW, and throw in an additional quick stop while on that end of Sevier County, J Floyds golf and guns is attached to a Shell station I think (539 Winfield Dunn Pkwy 37876), next to the Golden Corral. There is a little gun shop in the back where I have bought several small arms at good prices. On second thought, do not go in there, I havent been in a couple months and you might beat me to my next good find.
