TN holds tax-free holiday for gun safety equipment

NASHVILLE, TN (WSMV) – For the first time ever, Tennessee will hold a sales tax holiday exclusively for gun safety equipment.

The tax-free holiday begins July 1 at midnight and runs through June of 2022.

Tennesseans will be able to purchase things like gun safes and other gun safety devices without paying sales tax. The sales tax holiday follows the enactment of Tennessee’s new permitless carry bill, signed into law by Governor Bill Lee in April.
