Perfectionist, that IOF looks very nice! I'm sure you'll enjoy squeezing the trigger and busting caps with this one! Thanks for sharing!

Dear All,

Thanks you so much for your good wishes. Timmy - thanks, I admire your posts.

Until now I have fired a couple of shots only, they were very smooth (KF s&w L). when I got the revolver from IOF, there were machine scrapes of some kind inside the barrel and the whole thing was rough.

Got home and cleaned the revolver thoroughly with Ballistol (inside - out) and then put in Singer machine oil, passed many many patches and multiple time cleaned cylinder and barrel from brass and plastic brush, then the baby got shiny.

The shots were good and revolver was very smooth in both single and double action, still have to take it to a range, will certainly post the report for your kind review.

But I owe a lot to IFG for all my knowledge about arms.

Cheers....

@kandarp- The OWB holster (on the right side of pic) is supplied by IOF, it is of superior quality, better than you get anything in Kanpur with dealers, I have other owb holsters and shoulder holsters, but the good thing about this is that it has a belt loop and a clip as well, so hold to the pants quite firmly.
The LHS is IWB holster, got it from a dealer, is good and soft, but wearing out quickly.


Planning to buy a fanny pack for carrying :D comfortably.
Cheers....
