Indians For Guns

Good Evening All,
I want the guidance of this esteemed group in buying my first weapon. I am looking for a pistol, and i have three options. Pls help me finalise the best option among:
1. RFI Mk 2
2. Jindal Taurus 57
3. Stallion

Pls let me know what would be the right range of market price so that i am not scammed by Retailers.

Use of Pistol: Job Purpose & Home Defence.

Thank you.
Regards.

Choose between MSD Elite .32 and Taurus. Elite being one lac cheaper is more tempting. Elite is expected to be priced around 1.60 and its launching on 15th August.

One more option coming soon. https://youtube.com/shorts/bdMMIlNLi84? ... Pba7kJ-tue

Really tempting news, I omit the MSD for its .45 caliber since I am in 61, but .32 with 1.6 tag is a sweet news.

I am 70, and shooting my 1911 in 45 Auto is still the most enjoyable pleasure of my shooting experiences.

Wait till dec.

Isn't steel frame better than aluminium?

Why would this be so? Each material: steel, aluminum, and composite have advantages and disadvantages. For the particular use that is envisioned, one material may be better than another. Match what is needed to be done with the material that best accomplishes the task.

May be so.
Buy personally , I believe guns are supposed to be made of steel and wood and passed down through generations
I don't think plastics and aluminium will do justice in the long run.

I like steel guns. I have some that are over 100 years old and they are indeed quite durable. I did want a new gun for every day carry, however, and got a composite frame pistol. I've run about 500 rounds through it already and, when I go out, I always carry it. I can say that, when a composite frame pistol is carried for a number of hours, there is a huge difference between carrying it and carrying an all-steel pistol.

The guns that I love are steel, I agree. For the first time, I bought this new one as a tool, not a toy or heirloom. It's meant to do a job, and it sure is nice to have something that is light weight. For me, it's all about what the firearm is to be used for. I very seriously doubt that I will wear this new gun out. As for passing it down, my kids have their own guns and their own tastes. They both have considerably more money than I do and, if they want something, they buy it for themselves. In other words, I don't worry about what they like when I buy something for myself. That may not be how anyone else looks at it, but that's the way I look at it for myself.

RamMani, even if you are so ordinary that you are ordinarily ordinary, and you bought an MSD Guardian 1911, and you came over and we went to the range together with your Guardian 1911 and my 1911, you wouldn't be able to tell any difference between shooting both pistols. They are both 1911s, and the shooting experience would be the same.
