Great videos the audio was off on my PC..which ammo did you use. The two handgrip is what I would recommend. The recoil I hope isnt bad , I hope that was simply your reflex action rather than the actual recoil..nice shooting and good aim. How often do you practice, whats the age of gun and any issues big or small so far?

Cheers

Hii Mr Grewal

Thanks for your comments. Well. the ammo was KF only. It was not due to recoil of the gun, rather it was follow through. These 14 shots i fired after about 4 months. Though, I am a pistol shooter. Double hand grip is I feel actually required for IOF Revolver firing in DOUBLE ACTION mode coz the trigger pull is quite hard as compared to S&W or Colt. You need to maintain the correct sights while pulling the trigger.

Sorry, I forgot to mention that mine is 1 year old. Problem is not there if you maintain and clean your weapon regularly. Clean even after a sigle shot you fire. If maintainance is good, there will be no problems at all.

gandharvc,

That is very good shooting.Just shows you that it is the man behind the gun and not the gun itself.

I doubt the vast majority of those owning 'phoren' mint unfired NIB showpieces(Fire keeya to keemat ghat jaey gee) would be even get close to the display that you have put up :wink:

Didnt think the .32 had that much recoil. Must try one out. Good shooting.

i am not sure about one hand shooting but if you whana learn how to shoot than spend every weekend in to range and fire about 200 to 300 rounds then you can shoot up yo 50 yards with one hand .

Yes and I will also add to it that you will not have to look very hard to find some one with the 25 cartridges that he bought with the revolver, still with him

I have the similar experience with my IOF .32 revolver. The very first shot fired by my new IOF .32 revolver had hit the bull's eye! Unfortunately we couldn't take a video. However, three IFGians were the witnesses of that event on Balewadi final range.
Although I am not a regular shooter, out of 20, 18 bullets hit the target and 4 were within the inner orbit and one in bull!
As said before, IOF revolver if maintained properly (i.e applied to any weapon for that matter), is a predictable and fairly accurate arm that can suffice the purpose of self defence. However, conceal-ability can be a problem owing to the size of arm!
