Firearms must be unloaded and stored in the trunk.
Firearms can be carried openly in the passenger compartment.
A permit is required to transport a loaded handgun in your vehicle.
Firearms can only be transported for hunting purposes.

The correct answer is: A permit is required to transport a loaded handgun in your vehicle.

In Tennessee, it is true that a permit is required to transport a loaded handgun in your vehicle. This means that individuals must have a valid handgun carry permit if they wish to transport a loaded handgun in their vehicle. It is essential to comply with state regulations regarding the transportation of firearms to ensure safety and adherence to the law. Statement A is incorrect because in Tennessee, firearms do not necessarily have to be stored in the trunk when being transported in a vehicle. Statement B is incorrect because carrying firearms openly in the passenger compartment of a vehicle may not be legal in all situations and can depend on specific circumstances and applicable laws. Statement D is incorrect because firearms can be transported for purposes other than hunting in Tennessee, as long as individuals follow the relevant regulations and requirements.
