NC to Tn

[mg1cigar]

Hey all, I tried to do my research, but have yet to find a soild answer to my question. I have a CCP from NC, my travels will take me through the Great Smokey Mountain National Park in TN. I know TN is a reciprocal state to NC, but am I legal to carry while driving or if I get out of my car for some reason in the GSMNP area?

Also I came across this URL, is it legit? Link Removed

Thanks,
Mike

I wouldn't use that site as all. I don't think its been updated in a while. From what I know you can carry in your auto since you have a NC Permit that TN recognized.

Great info about NC and TN park carry.

You can carry in your car, and as far I as I know GSMP is a National Park so you are good there, but look at the signs when entering. In TN it has to be posted on the entrance of the door if they do not allow guns on their premisses, it should 12x12 and easy to see. You can carry in a restaurant that serves alcohol as long as YOU are not drinking. We have open carry, but I advise to keep it under raps, who needs the headache. Have fun while you are here and be safe.
