Three weeks until Tennesseans can carry without a permit<\/a><\/p>\n

NASHVILLE, TN (WSMV) – In three weeks, permit less carry goes into effect in Tennessee.<\/p>\n

And is it impacting gun sales? The folks at Royal Range in Nashville say they\u2019re not seeing much of an impact on sales due to the Permitless carry law. But, the gun range store says recently they\u2019ve seen a new trend with women.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo far not a giant impact,\u201d Bob Allen, the Director of Training at Royal Range said. \u201cWe\u2019re kind of steady, maybe just a little bit above right now. And really about the same with ammo,\u201d Allen said.<\/p>\n

Gun Owner Jarrett Williams said the Permitless carry law will make him buy more guns but not for obvious reasons.<\/p>\n

\u201cYes it will but only because I know there are going to be more people who maybe shouldn\u2019t have guns,\u201d Williams said. \u2018I\u2019m going to possibly need something to defend myself against anybody who is less qualified to have a weapon on them,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

Allen at Royal Range said some people are buying up; basically hoarding lots of ammo because they don\u2019t know what the future holds.<\/p>\n

\u201cAmmo prices have gone up substantially, but they\u2019ve dropped a bit,\u201d Allen said. \u201cThousand rounds of 9mm ammo was about $240 before Covid and during Covid it got to $800 and people were still buying it it has since dropped here at our place to $500 for a thousand rounds. And its kind of hard to get nowadays,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

Allen who oversees training at Royal Range says he has seen one major trend; more women buying guns.<\/p>\n

\u2018We\u2019ve seen a lot of; a substantial increase in ladies coming here to buy guns,\u201d Allen said. \u201cWe are seeing that increase quite a bit, whether its women self-defense , first time gun owners,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

Allen adds that even though the law takes effect in July, it doesn\u2019t require in- person or online course anymore. Royal Range is putting a course in place to teach people the law when the permitless carry goes into effect.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re all for a person defending themselves. They need to know the law, because if you don\u2019t know the law, you will get in so much trouble. If I pull it out at the wrong time, that\u2019s called aggravated assault which is felony,\u201d Allen said.<\/p>\n

He also adds another trend they\u2019ve noticed recently is more people coming to the gun range looking for training.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
