It depends. Some, but only a few, states in the U.S. require a license to purchase a gun. A gun permit normally refers to a permit allowing you to carry the gun on your person in public. Some people use the terms interchangeably, but each state calls the gun permit something different. In Tennessee, it is called a "Handgun Carry Permit." In Florida, it is a "Weapons Permit."

Techinally, there is no such thing as a gun license in TN in regards to the average person buying or carrying a gun, however, sometimes a gun permit is colloquially called a gun license.

Stricly speaking, a gun license is a Federal Firearms License, which is required to be a gun dealer.
