Amongst handguns PB calibres are only three viz .38-200 (aka .38 S&W), .455 Webley revolver and 9x19mm (aka 9mm Luger aka 9mm Parabellum) pistol.

Ammunition for none of these three calibres is easily available with arms & ammunition dealers.

Cheers!
Abhijeet

It would not surprise me even if Banson asked for Rs.7000/= a pop. Best way is to find out is to offer him pb ammo that you have for sell and then observe the price he offers. :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

PS: He is a friend and also is aware of what I think of him. :wink: :wink:
