AI Summary

This bill amends various Tennessee state laws to replace references to "handgun" and "handgun permit" with "firearm" and "firearm carry permit" respectively. It effectively expands the type of firearms that permit holders can carry from just handguns to any firearms they legally own or possess. The bill also specifies that valid firearm carry permits from other states will be recognized in Tennessee as if they were issued by the state. The changes made by this bill apply to a wide range of Tennessee laws, including those related to public records, mental health facilities, schools, and more.
