Cocaine with an estimated street value of around £149,000, along with a six-figure sum of cash and a firearm were recovered.
Detective Inspector Gordon Smith said: "This was a significant seizure that has undoubtedly disrupted the supply of illegal drugs in our community and taken a dangerous weapon off our streets.
“It also underlines our continued commitment to the Serious Organised Crime Taskforce and the country's Serious Organised Crime Strategy.
“We hope that this sends a clear message that that we will continue to relentlessly pursue and bring to justice those involved in such criminal activities.
“Information from the public is crucial and I would urge anyone with information or concerns about drugs in their area to contact Police Scotland on 101, or Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111, where anonymity can be maintained.”
