Right am travelling from Dumfries to Edinburgh to Nottingham to London - how many good gun shops ‘could I visit’ on or really close to that route to make it a really memorable road trip? .
..I might get time to do a couple but if the wifes asleep then more......

Pukka Bundhooks, Chester le Street, Hannams, Lantac at Harrogate and Reloading Solutions for starters!

Lawrence Precision in Nottingham for moderators. Quite a few shotgun related stores of the high end variety in London but for broad shooting GT Shooting Supplies http://www.gtshooting.co.uk/

Quite a few near me:

Northampton Gun - 6 MINS J15 M1
R&K Stockcraft - 20 MINS J15 M1
Donaldsons - 15 MINS J14 M1

Reloading Solutions is a fair way off your route but a cracking shop.

I wouldn't hold your hopes up of finding much between Dumfries and Edinburgh, this area of Scotland isn't very comprehensively catered for.

Maybe check here:

Roding Armoury, Silver Street, Romford, Essex RM4 1YA. This is the postal address but it is in the village of Abridge, between the Blue Boar and the Roding Restaurant
Worth a visit, tiny shop but good gunsmiths and will chat about anything gun related. Run by John and Phil. Worth a call first as hours have been restricted due to illness 01992 813 570.

Not a gun shop, what about Leeds Armoury?

+1 For Roding armoury , near to M11 M25 A12 , its just off the main road so ask for directions , its behind the restaurant .

Leeech and Sons at Boreham, just outside Chelmsford. Another proper gunsmith who does machine work
