Re: IOF ASHANI .32 pistol
You may go through the various postings made under .32 IOF revolver. You will have a fair idea of the latest products that are coming out from the production line, including photographs.After getting it from the sales outlet, normally no modification is required and it can be safely put to use.It has a high rate of ownership both in Bihar and UP and is rated as a reliable weapon.Revolvers as such are much reliable weapon than pistols and require much less servicing.You can check with the owners of such revolvers in your home town.Pay a visit to the arms section of the DM office and interview a few owners , when they come to get their arms inspected for renewal of licence.

Re: IOF ASHANI .32 pistol
If you search this forum you will find the individual experiences with IOF .32 pistol vary from good to bad. Also if the pistol is not double action then you will have to use another hand to first to rack the slide back before you can fire the first shot. When your response is expected in just a matter of seconds, this can be a very serious problem. There is a video on this website where a person was unable to fire the pistol within seconds and his attacker was able to shoot him dead. You can see it here http://indiansforguns.com/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=8202Is IOF .32 pistol as bad as it is made out to be out of the shelf ? Actually pistol being slimmer is easier & more comfortable to conceal .
Both pistol and revolver have their own advantages and disadvantages and the debate is usually never ending. Preferences vary from person to person. For advantages of revolver you may read this http://indiansforguns.com/viewtopic.php ... 79#p162047

From what I remember of the episode as reported,the fellow shot dead had an illegal firearm.Most likely a desi copy of a pistol.

Re: IOF ASHANI .32 pistol
Do these have a magazine follower? i.e. does the slide lock back after the last round if fired?

Booked one at Muradnagar in 2010, got delivery in 2012. The procedure is simple, download the form from net, fill it, attach the draft and other copies of documents mentioned in application form, send it by post or by hand, obtain booking number and then wait for collection letterLever Action wrote:Friends wanted to know if anybody has booked pistol at ordnance factory muradnagar (U.P), if yes pls share the procedure and waiting period for the pistol at muradnagar , thanks .......
