What is the minimum age to legally possess a firearm in Tennessee without supervision?

  1. 18 years old

  2. 21 years old

  3. 16 years old

  4. 14 years old

The correct answer is: 18 years old

In Tennessee, the minimum age to legally possess a firearm without supervision is 18 years old. While it may seem that 21 years old or 16 years old could also be potential ages for this minimum age requirement, these are not the case. 21 years old is the minimum age to purchase a handgun from a licensed dealer, but not necessarily the minimum age to simply possess one. 16 years old may seem like an option as some states allow minors to possess firearms under certain circumstances, but this is not the legal age in Tennessee. Additionally, 14 years old is too young to legally possess a firearm in any context in Tennessee.
