Who is eligible to apply for a concealed carry permit in Tennessee?

  1. Any resident over the age of 18

  2. Non-residents with regular employment in Tennessee

  3. Any resident aged 21 and older, with some exceptions for military members

  4. All U.S. citizens regardless of residency

The correct answer is: Any resident aged 21 and older, with some exceptions for military members

Residents aged 21 and older are eligible to apply for a concealed carry permit in Tennessee with some exceptions for military members. Option A is incorrect because the age requirement is 21, not 18. Option B is incorrect because it only mentions non-residents, while the question is asking about residents. Option D is incorrect because the age requirement and residency status are both important factors in eligibility.
