IOF pump action 12GA shotgun manufactured 2017

Post by The Doc » Sat Mar 04, 2017 8:57 pm

Greetings Gentlemen,

Yesterday I came to know that the IOF pump action 12GA shotgun manufactured 2017 has been delivered to the AA dealers to be sold to the bank security personnel. From the pics I presume that it has a 20 inch barrel, black synthetic stock and possibly an aluminium receiver.
Has any member seen/handled this gun ? A feed back would be welcome.

You are right dsingh ji. Even I have faced the problems while I got an opportunity to fire an IOF pump action.
1 cartridge didn't cycle well
2 ejection system malfunction .
I doubt that safety is sufficient to block the hammer .

Those were the problems with the older models. My post is specific to the year 2017 model. Sometime back IFG member "TC" informed about a newer model being developed at RFI Calcutta on lines of a Winchester or Remington pump action. I believe this is the model. The minimum smooth bore barrel length allowed to civilians is 20 inches.

Below from RFI website, they haven't mentioned whether they are selling thru AA dealers or directly.
However, AA dealers in Delhi have recieved new PAG stocks and selling to bank guards.....they say it would be available to civilians April onwards.

Looks very like a copy of a Mossberg 500

The revised Pump Action, like its earlier avatar, remains a near identical copy of the Mossberg 500. Apart from minor mechanical changes, the only major change appears to be the material of the receiver which earlier was IS:617 aluminium alloy, now it is constructed out of an investment cast BS:3146-1 steel.

Presumably, the trigger housing, it's top is a critical bearing surface, will also be of a similar steel composition.

Courtesy TC http://www.hindustantimes.com/india-new ... sZRDI.html

From the above article:
“Each gun will retail for around ₹ 75,000, inclusive of taxes,” said a dealer.
Also, the new gun has been given a ferrous metal receiver and not the lighter aluminium one seen earlier.

Interestingly, the gun has prominent front and back sights seen on rifles that fire single projectiles at much higher velocity and with pin-point accuracy.

RP,
Given RFI's production capacity and speed and the commitment to produce 11,000 guns for State Bank of India, there should not be any reason for RFI to sell this to civilians right now. But there is a big catch here, as you must have seen in my report. SBI has to take delivery of the guns from dealers only and not directly from RFI !

An arms dealer in Delhi has already started advertising in social media gun forums that he has has stocked enough 2017 models for public sale. So I guess you can go ahead :D

Cheers

TC
