Unfortunately, with the increase in license fee and the limit on the number of guns to 2, you can't even give away for free an Indian made SBBL gun these days. There is no demand for them

I was surprised that a Westley Richards 32 inch barrel length side by side in a fairly good condition sold for 15 k only last month. The same weapon was quoting over 100k a year back. After the 2 Arms rule people are selling off the DB the most at any price I guess.

It is true that with the two weapon limit in place, most licence holders in India who own a handgun, a rifle and a shotgun, would prefer to hold on to the first two and let go of the third, even if the latter is made by Westley Richards. There could be exceptions if the shotgun is an heirloom, or the owner prefers it over a rifle for home defence, due to the risk of over penetration and ricochets if the latter is fired at an intruder inside a room.

The "best" British double barrel guns and rifles in India by top makers like Boss, Holland and Holland, Purdey, Rigby et al were bought and exported out of India over a period of several years by representatives of Holland and Holland and Westley Richards from the gun rooms of former princely states and well off collectors, particularly after the limit of three weapons came into force.

These weapons, many of which had never been used and most were in mint, cased condition, found a ready market in the USA. Even now they frequently feature in auctions of fine guns or in sites like gunsinternation.com or in the sales catalogues of Holland and Holland and Westley Richards.

Since exports are virtually closed and fresh licences not being issued, prices of guns and even rifles are falling in UP and many other States. The trend will be arrested and reversed only when fresh licences are issued liberally.

In such a situation, guns made in Munger may not be able to command remunerative prices and find a market only for crop protection purposes.
