Dear all,
Can someone please share, at the time of buying an iof handgun from a dealer, how to check weather weapon is brand new and not from resale one. Other than the visual inspection is there any paperwork to be checked to verify the same.
Thanks

Brand new will have high invoice value like 90k or one lac where as second will have much lower invoice value like 15k or 20k.

“Responsibility is a unique concept. It can only reside and inhere in a single individual. You may share it with others, but your portion is not diminished. You may delegate it, but it is still with you. You may disclaim it, but you cannot divest yourself of it.”

Dear all, I saw RFI mark 2 at dealer's shop and found too much play in slide/barrel. Is it normal ? Although there was some play also visible in GSF pistol's slide too, but it was less as compare to RFI mark2. These all were brand new. Oil was applied in GSF pistols which was giving some glued effect and once he applied wd40 in one of them little play(loosening) observed afterwards. kindly guide on it.
Regards

Some play is ok but if the play is too much then try another piece. Also I have noticed that when magazine is removed from the pistol, the play increases and when the magazine is put back into the pistol, the play reduces.
