The Wallace collection is fantastic
Lot of Indian weaponry but also medieval armor as well
Greys antique center is v close by and has lots of dealers of all sorts, Centre is not open much on sundays though.
My favorite of contemporary Militaria is HMS Belfast.
Enjoy the trip.

Sometimes the obvious gets overlooked. If you haven't been there, don't forget about the Tower of London, for sometime during your visit. Revenge yourself for Tussauds.

The national army museum Chelsea
have a good collection of Indian swords and grand grand uniforms of the 19th century.

Depending on how long time you have, the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge should be worth seeing - although I have only seen pictures from the museum.

Thank you Ken, Tim, Jens and treeslicer.

I will push my wife to visit the tussaud during the first day. I think the wallace will be first choice for me and then I will see how much time there will be for more on the following days.

Thank you all

Thomas

You cant do anything wrong visiting The Wallace Collection, but make sure to read all about before visiting.
