  2. It is allowed, but only with a handgun carry permit

  3. It is entirely prohibited

  4. It is allowed only during hunting season

The correct answer is: It is allowed, but only with a handgun carry permit

Carrying a handgun openly in Tennessee is allowed, but only with a handgun carry permit. This means that individuals in Tennessee must obtain a permit specifically for carrying a handgun openly in public places. It is important to note that just carrying a handgun openly without a permit is not allowed and can result in legal consequences. Therefore, option B is the correct statement regarding carrying a handgun openly in Tennessee.
