What type of background check is required for a firearm purchase from a licensed dealer in Tennessee?

No background check is needed
NICS check
Tennessee state background check
Both NICS and Tennessee state background check

The correct answer is: NICS check

A NICS check is required for a firearm purchase from a licensed dealer in Tennessee. The National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) is run by the FBI and is used to determine if a prospective buyer is eligible to buy firearms or explosives. This check helps ensure that individuals with criminal records or other disqualifying factors do not obtain firearms legally. Therefore, option B is the correct answer.
