IOF Ambernath Experience

After waiting for 2 months, I got my new IOF .32 Revolver from Ambernath MTPF.
It was a nice experience. We went there at about 10.00am and within an hr we got our stuff in hand! The staff is quite sensible and helpful. I had fever but I didn't want to miss the chance. When I told them I wasn't well, they processed my documents fast and finished all other formalities in minutes.
The revolver is a nicely finished Mark II model. However, they could have put good grips instead of plastic. (I have changed that). They also give a pretty nice holster and a cleaning kit alongwith the revolver.
Am eagerly waiting for the chance to fire it now..

Few days back I fired my new IOF revolver for the first time.
The very first bullet (inaugural fire!) shot by my friend NK, hit the bull's eye !!
After that I fired almost 20 shots out of which 10 hit the target. 4 shots hit the inner circle. Initially I found the trigger a bit hard but now
its moving smooth.
Overall it was a memorable experience for me !!
