Tennessee HB1189 aimed to amend various sections of the Tennessee Code Annotated (TCA) related to firearm carry permits. The bill proposed to change the terminology from "handgun carry permits" to "firearm carry permits," thereby allowing permit holders to carry firearms beyond just handguns and modifying training requirements accordingly. Additionally, it sought to adjust reciprocity provisions for permits issued by other states, ensuring that holders of valid permits from those states would receive similar privileges in Tennessee. The bill ultimately failed to pass.
