Help in identifying .32 Revolver

Post by sonuvecv » Thu Apr 19, 2012 5:01 am

Dear IFG'ns ,
Your help is required in identification of this revolver ,its a 7 shot .32 Bore,chamber extracts from side,firing pin fixed type as of my MK3 IOF revolver , Made in Germany Engraved on it,and RS with a symbol also . Barrel looks in good condition.He is asking for 3.5 Lakhs and ready to take my Iof rEVOLVER IN 1 lAKH,shall i consider it for buying and does the weapon worth as claimed .I know I will get comments like firangi or foregn slave mentality but sir Being from Chambal region I can't help it where weapons are to flaunt not conceal.
Regards,
Digvijay Singh Tomar

Looks like an Arminius HW-3
I believe in second chances… it’s called reloading

He is basically taking your revolver for free.The last time I checked Arminius revolvers were going for about 2.5 lakhs and the one in the condition you posted, for less.IOF revolvers for about 1.10-1.20 lakhs.

Also beware Arminius Revolvers are made of Alloy, will not handle any misuse

:agree:
specally be ware of using wadcutters in an alloy frame, as slight misalignments of cylinder due to wear in indexing mechanism could be dangerious and render your frame bent.
I had come across a bent magnum carry and on further research i realised it was either a fake or a starter conversion (illeagal) as correspondence with a colt person suggested that .32 were never made in alloy by colt, for it cannot handle the presure's. I'll try to post that letter.
so be ware do ur research....
