Lots of Detective Specials are in the market. Cost around 8 lakh or 8.5.
The alloy body Colt Cobras cost a little less.

Among the IOF revolvers I would say the latest productions are all good for the job and you can fire imported ammo in all of them. Haven't heard of any first hand report on the titanium body Nirbheek model. So can't comment on that model. The 2014 , 2015 steel models are good.

Hi fellow IFGians,

I just took delivery of my .32 revolver from FGF, Kanpur and was pleasantly surprised to know that they have reduced the price from Rs 87120 to Rs 74869. This is effective from 7.8.15. Nirbeek version too has been reduced to about Rs 122000.
The quality alas is just the same, but at this price it's very good value for money.

What types/brands of ammo are available for this revolver, and what is the performance? It seems most people of India are limited in available ammo so I was curious. Thanks.
