Any recommendation for a gun shop to visit in Nashville. Preferably one that has bpcr styles.   Gonna be here a couple days. Might as well look around

I recall going to a few there and it was ARs and every other brand of mil-surps. Never saw what I would determine a classic rifle, nevermind a nice single shot. But I sure don't profess to say I hit every shop and might have missed the biggest/best one around ... as I was there on business and had to run out at lunch when co-workers weren't with me (non-shooters ya' know ... ).

However, if you're into flintlocks, drive ~1-hour north and go visit Tip Curtis. Bring your wallet ... his guns are so fine you'll spend hours there drooling!
  

All of my single shots shoot one tiny ragged hole with cast bullets ... it's just the following shots that tend to open up my groups Wink ...

Six of us were in Nashville a week ago for the big bluegrass convention.  We didn't look for any gun shops as we only had music on our minds.  If you have time you could visit the new Gruhn Guitar store on South 8th Av.  Even if you're not a musician you'll be impressed.  It must have the largest banjo department in the world.  Say "Hello" to Calvin Minner for me.  Andy

There is a hugh gun shop In Franklin right off of I-65. They have hundreds of used guns but when we were there last spring I didn't see any single shot rifles of interest.

Checked out the big one in Franklin.  It's big, they claim to have  6000 guns.  Didn't count them  but there were a lot.  A few repro Sharpes, an .43 Spanish RB with a good bore,  a martini 577.  Nothing to make me part with cash.     Checked out  two  others but they were small and catered to the more modern crowd.   If I had the time I would have went to see the Tip Curtis shop,  that one looked fun.
