Modified it into a WHAT ??? 12 bore ?? 9mm ? I wonder if some of the people bother to go through the posts that they make. Can anyone make out the meaning of the post. ( there is no interest in reading the requests of the mods to go through the rules)

Could these not be deleted straight off?

Regards,

Vikas

I think he is trying to say that he has a iof .32 bore revolver or pistol and he wants to modify the way it looks.He wants to know from where can he do so.
Guys he should be excused seeing that this is his first post and his english seems to be poor.

is that a pistol or revolver first clarify this
In business, being the first doesn't mean anything. Getting it right is the recipe that defines everything.

hi amit
welcome. you may enhance the looks of your gun by simply changing the factory fitted cheap plastic grips to a wooden one.this is the least possible modification you can make on a iof product,but if you are looking for a complete overhawling, you may get it blued,in case of a pistol you may fix a slide rail or convert its magazine release system into a push button kind. you visit www.gunaccessory.com and you'll get the idea of what possible modifications can be done on an iof product.take care.

Improve the IOF .32 you say

IOF .32 revolver

1.Check the timing is right and yes I am talking of a NEW revolver.

2.Reduce the trigger pull to a level where you can at least hit the target .

3.Check the muzzle to see if is crowned properly.

4.Ensure that the firing pin is properly radiused and that it strikes the primer in the centre.

5.Ensure that there is negligible end shake.

6.Do check all the chambers in the cylcinder to ensure that they are reamed properly .Chamfering them would be a good idea.

7.The revolvers are test fired and rarely cleaned before being sold.Check the barrel to ensure that there is no pitting/darkening of the bore as a result of the residue left behind.The primers are corrosive BTW.

The rest is all cosmetic stuff*.

IOF .32 pistol

1.Change the barrel lock.Check to ensure that it remains in position during firing by cycling the slide.

2.TIG weld the slide and the remachine it to ensure proper slide to frame fit.

3.Polish the feeding ramp.

4.Ensure that the extractor functions properly and extraction and ejection are flawless.

5.Ensure that the magazine lips are not cracked,that the spring pushes up the cartridges,that there are no cracks in the magazine housing near the floor plate and that there no dings in the magazine body.

6.Ensure that the barrel to slide fit is as perfect as possible

7.Ensure that the barrel is rifled properly and there are no bulges or uneven spots at the time of purchase

The rest is just fluff**

Adding any metal as in adding that ugly ventilated contarption to the slide on gunaccessory.com would change the timing and have an adverse impact on reliability

* , ** please ignore if this is what you are interested in.If yes, might I suggest a telescope,a laser pointer and a tactical light all mounted on your handgun ROTFL
