DefExpo 2020 - Any Lucknow members planning to visit?

This time many Indian small arms manufacturers from the private sector (in collaboration with various foreign firms) have put up their stalls.

Was wondering if any of our members from Lucknow have visited or plan to visit the DefExpo 2020? Be great if they could share photos and experiences with the rest of us. Be great if someone could talk to the reps at the stalls and ask about how many of them actually plan to launch/ sell in the civilian market as well.

Meanwhile am posting photos received by me from others via WhatsApp.

The Taurus collaborator is Jindal Steel per the report in the Economic Times last month.

Cheers!
Abhijeet

Dear Abhijeet Sir,

Please let us know about the Foreign Companies who are collaborating with Indian Manufacturers for Civilian market in India. By when their products will be available in our markets? And any estimate of possible pricing. Which NP calibres are most preferred by these companies?
I hope this info will be useful for everyone in this forum.

Regards
Vikramaditya Singh

If the Taurus folks offer their .357 and .44mag revolvers and .380,.40 and .45 pistols at reasonable prices, that should really take the market to a different level. Of course, provided our licensing system allows it.

All the above bores are NPB categories , so I don’t think that there will be any problem in making those calibers at reasonable rates .

Taurus doing many clone like Beretta 92 Colt 1911
And have some original product in revolver and pistol sector

Revolver Taurus not bad not bad

Basic - clone Taurus more better then IOF production

I shooting from taurus pistols revolvers and pistol cartridge carbine - quality very low

Magtech ammo not good too ,price very high and quality very low like shitty russian ammo like Barnaul,but Barnaul cartridge price 7 cent, Magtech - 70 cent
in 2012-2015 many russian shooting club buying many many taurus,in present have live taurus barrel only 1 club
resources of taurus barrel 2000-4000 shots max
For example russian bullshit Viking (PYa civil clone) price 300 USD resource of barrel 15000-20000 shots
