New guy from Lansing, MI

[roadman]

Greetings all. Just moved from the Great Lakes state to the Franklin area. My wife is from the south and she says she can de-program the yankee out of me in no time. lol It is a beautiful part of the country and I can't wait to settle in.

 

Anyone have tips on good Gun shops, places to shoot, oh and I guess I will need recommendations for a good CCW class sometime in the next six months when my Michigan CPL becomes invalid.

Welcome! My whole family is from Michigan (sadly I was born just south of the border in Ohio). Family in Interlochen, Muskegeon, Grand Ledge, and Birmingham to name a few. Moved here a few years ago and never looked back!

 

Avoid Franklin Gun Shop unless you want to spend way over going rate for guns, Nashville Armory isn't bad (nice range and good gun selection). If you want to venture to the north side of Nashville, you can't beat D&T arms (small but treat members here wonderfully) and Guns and Leather. Both are really good shops to do business with.

Welcome roadman. xjsnake speaks the truth. Nashville Armory has seen a lot of my money in the short time they have been open.

Welcome. Remember that we don't care how you did things up north, and that this is one of the last mostly free places left in the USA. Let's all try to keep it that way.

Welcome, Roadman.  I'm a fairly recent transplant from Michigan as well.  You should be able to obtain a Tennessee carry permit without taking classes if you already have a Michigan carry permit.  It's what I did.  I believe it's just some time, paperwork and about 50 bucks.

License change should take no more than going to a Driver's License office and paying the TN renewal fee, $50 as I recall. Edited May 8, 2014 by enfield

And we don't care what you think about us original Northerners.  We did not move here to change anything, so stop your whining.  Anyone who truly loves their country understands the premise of the saying "united we stand, divided we fall".
