Hi,
My father has a licensed. 38 colt from the time of my great grandfather who was a cop. My father is a doctor and he has been told the gujarat license cannot be moved to his son's because it is a restricted bore.
What options do we have? Someone told him he can write to home ministry?? I live in the US where gun ownership is relatively easy. Is there a way for him to transfer to me?
Thanks!

You can get ‘Restricted bore’ license on the basis of inheritance category but the process is long and difficult one.nid15 wrote: ↑Wed Mar 22, 2023 12:28 pmHi,

Even if you manage to get the licence ....getting ammunition for the gun would be very difficult not to mention very expensive.Vineet wrote: ↑Wed Mar 22, 2023 4:18 pmYou can get ‘Restricted bore’ license on the basis of inheritance category but the process is long and difficult one.nid15 wrote: ↑Wed Mar 22, 2023 12:28 pmHi,
