Gun shops near ripley?

[guy]

Hi all,
am going to Ripley rifles to get a gun serviced and being advised it may take a few hours but I can stay if I want and see him do it, only problem is I will have the youngest with me who will need occupying (hoping being in a gun workshop will be enough he is 11 after all) but failing that was wondering if there are any good gun shops stocking airguns in the area (25 mile radius) had a quick look and saw a couple but seem to be shotgun orientated, thinking drapers? is there anything else?

thanks

I was in Steves shed 2 weeks ago, lots of swarf about. He can talk the hind legs off a donkey, I drove into Derby for a mooch about, it took him 5 hours to service my AR5s.

Why does it take 5 hrs

Why does it take 5 hrs

No idea! When I got back his apprentice had joined him who must have been 50 years old+ lol.

Steve told me he started work in 1968. So I guess he works at his own pace with plenty of roll ups to break up the day, and a lunch break etc.
