Interested in getting your Concealed Carry Handgun Permit? This three-hour safety course satisfies the minimum training required by Tenn. Code Ann. § 39-17-1366 to obtain a Concealed Carry Handgun Permit (CCP). Tennessee does not require a permit to merely own a firearm (for example, if you keep one in your home). However, if you want to carry a firearm concealed on your person out in public, you’ll need a CCP. There are lots of people advertising permit classes nowadays. Before you sign up for the cheapest, closest, or shortest course you can find, please consider what makes CSA unique.
