Assuming you are in India.
What is your ammo quota? That should decide whether or not you want one in the first place. From what little I have been reading... if your ammo quota is 5 rounds a year. What are you goiing to do with a second one.

Moreover, in a SD situation... if you need to shoot more than one magazine to retreat to a safe location, a second one wont help.
No offense ... IMHO my .00000000000000000000002 cents adjusted for inflation.

And being in India.. if you cant find one in a shop, you always have the option of having one made. No idea of the legality though.

Does Ammo quota vary from people-to-people/state-to-state???

Can any fellow member specify?

Bhaskar,
join a shooting association in ur state / area, participate in couple of events till u reach nationals,, then u r eligible to apply for such a limit, why ? because then u have so much experience & u need such quota, and the association will also recommend you, and also u have some certificates to justify ur request...
