They are available but cost Rs.35,000.00

The one left at Bangalore Armoury is way too tight though. Phone up the other shops to enquire. KSRA member, Nahaar, bought one a couple of months back and it is an okayish O/U with triggers that make you think the safety may still be on. However, one soon gets used to it. Don't expect to see the sort of fit or finish seen on imported shotguns.

Splitting this thread into two.

I agree whole heartedly . But this kinda stock grain is not too bad, neither is the grain flow.

I agree 35 is way to high for a Indian shotty out of Jammu,for around 35-40 one can pick up a good Belgian/English shotty,sometime back I saw a hammered SxS Beretta going for around 25,the condition was pretty good.

RP could you post the complete pics of the gun.

Thanks
