Hi,
Can anybody share their experience of handling the IOF pump action shotgun. I have heard of a lot of jamming.

Any experience is welcome, please!!!!!!

Pankaj,

I don't have familiarity with the IOF pump guns. One thing that causes jams especially in Indian context is, improper reloading of cartridges.Remember, many hand reload their cartridges.When a reloaded cartridge is used and if there is even a slight bulge, it would get stuck jamming the action. I saw it happening in Remingtons. You may keep this in mind when someone tells you about jams.

My experience is with SW PA in India, old cartridges the non plastic, cardboardish shell ones used to get stuck all the time. Worked fine with plastic shells.

It is.The jokers in IOF will sell it to a Bank that gets a license in the same form and under the same terms and conditions as an ordinary licensee with a license for self defense with permission to buy a NP SBBL gun but will not sell it to anybody else.Planing to take them up on the legality of that shortly along with the 5 years ban on the sale of the IOF junk bought from the factory by a licensee.Will let you know about the outcome.

Take care,
