What are the penalties for illegally carrying a firearm in Tennessee?

  1. Fine only

  2. Fine and imprisonment

  3. Community service

  4. Mandatory firearm safety course

The correct answer is: Fine and imprisonment

Carrying a firearm in Tennessee without proper authorization is considered a serious offense and can result in both a fine and imprisonment. Options A and C are incorrect because they do not reflect the severity of the offense. Option D is incorrect because it suggests a penalty that is not mentioned in the introduction to the question. It is important to note that the specific penalties for illegally carrying a firearm may vary depending on the circumstances of the case and the individual's criminal history. So, while B is the correct answer, the penalties may also include other consequences such as probation, loss of firearm rights, or community service. It is always best to check with local laws and law enforcement for the most accurate and up-to-date information on penalties for illegally carrying a firearm in Tennessee.
