Hi folks
At Last i have been able to lay my hands on .22 rifle BRNO MOD 2. Costed me Rs 118. Yah thats correct you read it correct now thats some privileges one gets for serving this nation, collected from COD jabalpur the barrel is in a good condition,no pitting or rust, the trigger, colt and safety catch all in working order. All it needs is bluing and some work on stock to get it back to its old glory. So please enjoy the beauty. ImageImageImageImageImageImageImage

Congratulations sir on your new possession. It must have been like I said, A lots of these beauties stacked in old wooden cases, waiting to be rescued. Now starts the restoration phase. Best of luck for that and please do post pics after restoration. Please check your PM for a small tip about the restoration work.
Regards

Zorawar,

Congratulations on the nice rifle. Since you said you are in Hyderabad, I recommend Cauvery Cowboy, a member here, as one of the best gunsmiths in India. He is a licensed gunsmith and dealer and has his workshop in Secunderabad cantonment area. If you wish, I will PM his contact details to you.

Best-
Vikram

Hi nice rifle, been using this regularly at the range in bangalore and very smooth and easy to handle. However those are quote new ones and get nice grouping though it's just bee a month that I got enrolled here and using range sine then.

Congrats Zorawar, these model 2s cost ₹750/ in late 60s and were brought into the country in hundreds for shooting clubs as well as individual members of NRAI.. I bought mine brand new in 1972 (manufactured 1972) for ₹3000/ and friends cursed me for having spoilt the buyers market. you have lowered the bar for the buyers now,Kudos!!!
