States that do not honor Tennesse Carry permits
Below are the states that do not honor a Tennessee Handgun Carry Permit (Which allow you to carry either openly or concealed, it is your choice, but in the training you are advised to carry concealed which I do)!
California
Connecticut
Hawaii
Illinois
Maine
Maryland
Massachusetts
New Jersey
New York
Oregon
Rhode Island
Wisconsin
Looks like Wisconsin will soon be off that list, Tennessee has been a shall issue State since 1996 so we have been permitting this for almost years November 1996 is when the law went into effect. There have been very few instances of permit holders receiving criminal convictions as a matter of fact those that have carry permits tend to be law abiding citizens.
All those that say more gun owners with firearms will lead to chaos are simply proven wrong with 340,000 permit holders and growing lately in the State of Tennessee, most of the states that do not honor Tennessee's permit are too far away and I have no reason to go there anyway, all states that touch Tennessee honor or reciprocate such as Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Kentucky, Virginia, North and South Carolina as well as Florida, Texas and Oklahoma and Missouri, Mississippi and Louisiana has a reciprocal agreement as does Michigan with New Mexico and Wyoming ...heck where else would I want to go?
