Senate Bill 633 amends Tennessee Code Annotated, specifically Section 39-17-1316(c), to introduce a new requirement for firearm transactions involving purchasers aged between eighteen and twenty years. The bill mandates that gun dealers must ensure that a minimum of fourteen days has elapsed since the initiation of the transaction before transferring the firearm to the purchaser. This provision aims to impose a waiting period for younger buyers, potentially enhancing public safety.

The act is set to take effect on July 1, 2025, and will apply to all firearm transactions initiated on or after that date. This legislative change reflects a growing trend to implement stricter regulations surrounding firearm purchases, particularly for younger individuals.
