Indians For Guns

Does anyone own a 1911 here in India

Lots of people in India own 1911 pistols, these were issued in fairly large numbers to ex-servicemen under the NSP scheme. You'll find these made by various companies who were contracted to supply the same to the US military.

Though to be precise most of them will be the 1911A1 model and not the older 1911 model which preceded it.

What price in India? 45 is NPB

Till middle of last year .45 ACP was under the "restricted" list of calibres, but the new Arms Rules 2016 have removed it from that list and now it is a "permissible" calibre and can be owned on an ordinary handgun license.

The ammunition isn't currently manufactured here though, imported ammunition retails for upwards of ₹200 - ₹250 per round. Most commonly available brand is S&B.

The pistols themselves go for upwards of ₹400,000 these days (depending on make & condition).

Bulls Eye. My Ithaca was for 7 and Colt was for 8.30..

Those are some great prices. A colt in good shape new is over $800. I just bought a colt delta elite 10mm. Was $1200 us.

Are you still looking for a buyer for your .45's
