New Licensee Question-Please Help

Post by ARUN GANGWAR » Thu Sep 28, 2017 1:41 pm

Hi friends and dear respected members as I am completely new to the forum as well to the guns hence your expertise is expected.
Recently I had obtained my .32 bore license and just want to know that which other bore just as .22 revolver/ pistol can I have on my licence.

Welcome to IFG!

Congratulations on your license.

Is the calibre for which the license is issued mentioned on your license? Or is it mentioned as NPB?

Read carefully what is written in your license.
It looks like you have got license for NPB revolver/ pistol. You can purchase any NPB revolver/ pistol. Common NPB calibers in India are .22, 25 acp, 32 acp, 32 revolver, 7.62x25, 7.63x25.

When a new license is issued, bore is not mentioned. Sometimes revolver or pistol is specifically mentioned. If revolver is mentioned and you want to buy pistol then it can be done by giving an application to change weapon type from revolver to pistol.
