Gentlemen - thank you all for your insight. My sense of things before my son's visit, was that the only guns I ever saw from Scotland were, selling for around $100,000. I was hopeful he could step into a shop and find that there were more affordable pieces. I also had some understanding that there was greater government control than what we had here in the states, but did not know the details. Glad to hear that firearms are available and hunting and gun sports are alive and well in Scotland.
Beautiful countryside was enjoyed and ancestry information from the mid 1800's obtained with the help of locals. Hopefully one day I'll be able to visit for myself. Regards, Bill
