What happened? - out of nowhere - a flurry of activity! Yup I am the OP - wasn't intending to set the pot to boiling. So an update. I still have to take the course - it's kinda quite around here, and I don't leave the house often - then it's rarely anywhere close to "trouble points" (we are rural - roundabouts I don't believe anyone is unarmed) so I hit a road block in the application process, and still need to go about taking this class Address for last 3 years - well we returned to the US about 3 years ago so until recently I wasn't able to complete the form - so thanks for the reminder! The course in NC was thorough enough - class given by a Captain in the Sheriff's office. So really it's more a matter of learning any differences between NC and TN law. Is it really another 8 hour "course" just for that?? The 8 hour course in NC was abridged by mutual consent of instructor and participants - nothing was missed out. I would have thought TN would (and should) be constitutional carry by now!

LoL - no I promise - nothing will be hidden in the trunk - pun intended. Altho the act was pretty sad - punishement according to human criminal law to an animal that knows nothing but natural law...

Perfect! Thanks for the info, and a Lady may be a big plus - I may just MAY be able to convince my Wife to take the course too :) Whilst being strong constitutional minded, she has yet to pick up a gun let alone fire a shot!   We are very much looking forwards to being in Erwin - everyone is so genuinely friendly and polite, even "the teens"   Best Graham

We will be moving to Erwin (in the East) a little far from Nashville - closest City would be Johnson City/Kingsport   Thanks for the reply tho :)

Thanks for the information, and the link - it wasn't pulling up when I searched :(   ... so more fees and hoops to jump thru for something that is freely gauranteed in The Constitution... oh well   any leads on a good "safety" course? - the one I took in NC was with a Captain of the County Sherriff's dept (outside work hours) he had a great sense of humor and made it fun :)

I have an NC CHP, valid for several more years.   If anyone could shed some light on what and how, I would greatly appreciate any info!   We are moving to TN, do I have to take another course to get a permit in TN? (I am assuming a permit is required)   Can I "use" the NC permit untill this is sorted?   Once I have a TN drivers license does the NC permit become invalid, or disqualified?   Or any other action(s) I need to take?   On the surface it seems TN is a little more gun "friendly" - is this correct?   Thanks much ~ Graham

Thanks much for the welcome :) we have travelled many miles in Tennessee over the years, all good experiences, "Mini-Me" has Tennessee as his middle name, he was born in Memphis after we evacuated from Katrina - he is really looking forwards to living in the State that he was named after!   We have been to the range in Unicoi quite often - it's the closest rifle range to us... and now we'll be a stones throw away...   and I will now be able to actually purchase at the gun show in Kingsport :up:

Greetings from NC - currently 11 miles south of the border.   We will be moving to Erwin, in a few weeks - waiting on closing on property, thought I should seek out some fellow enthusiasts before the move...   ... so... Hello, my real name is Graham, I try for the same screen name as it usually available.    Thunor is Old Englisc "Thor"
