Better remove this post before the maoists and terrorists or worst of all the MHA sees it....
Very pretty gun by the way. Shows we could actually do things right at one point of time in the dim past.

My hunch is that this gun is not very old and made by these people. I believe they make and export a good few muzzle-loaders.

Udaipur has had a rich tradition of sikligars and as peterdk rightly said it is neither rare nor best.
But how very clever to make it in an 'obsolete' bore so that they can export it.

...shucks...I'm going old. After a second look the 11bore looks rather 'cheesy'... agree with peterdk.

...great! I remember I have a Winchester 1886 in .33WCF lying around somewhere...what do I need to do?...

i would be the last person to know what to do but please refer to the other thread going on re: best guns and it was written there that if the ammo isnt manufactured here, it may be exported.

The phrase used is "current and popular calibres" and those of a pattern used by the armed forces.
