Naren,

Hope you aren't planning to get the AR and 220 on TR... :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

BTW Indian, congrats on your 86, shoot well and look after it. Once you get to India its probably the only nice thing you got....not to mention damn precious! :)

Nawab Bhai, you're mistaken :mrgreen: ... though I'd like to see the day when some one congratulates me for such hardware :) .... the fact is its Indian and axp187 who've picked up new pieces.... I'm still forcing my self to be content with my FN Browning .32 :)

CC,
I am not planning on TRing anywhere, leave alone India. I came here at an early age, there are too many reasons for me not to move to India.

Oh, and heres some more eye candy for you :P

Ah! was just pulling your leg. In my book the best reason for not moving back is evident in the pics you posted. :)

Hi Indian,

If I remember, your 86 has a single stack magazine(I'm feeling too lazy to back track on the thread)- That being the case, many qualified butchers should be able to fabricate one or more for you. As to how reliable or durable, I cannot really say. They will cost a bundle as well. Certainly non in my area.

Double stacks are a little more difficult because of the carefully placed contours that 'squeeze' and angle the two columns to a final single stack feed lip.

Hi Indian,
There is a gunsmith in Nagaon , Assam who is in this business for two generations at least. He does make magazines and when I mentioned the one you need(double stack) he says that he would be able to fabricate one although it will take a month. His phone no is 03672235658 and the name is Sri Shankar Prasad.You may contact him directly.
