What does the rule book say about importing a handgun?

Post by FlyingSoldier » Sat Oct 16, 2010 12:32 pm

If I have owned a gun in U.S.A for an year, can I bring it to India legally under the new law that prohibits OCIs from owning a gun?

If it is possible then tell me what Glock handgun would you go for which is also legal in India.

Thank you.

if you say it can not be done, then you are right, for you, it can not be done.

Where does it specifically talk about OCI who already owns a weapon overseas and would like to import the gun?

Thanks.

if you are doing TR why not? as long as its a NPB

or comes as a tourist for six months then yes.

Hi! SO what is TR it has to do with residence right? Any forms, I would need to feel or just have my gun surrendered at the airport. Are you 100% that it is legal under residency change? Considering that I carry NPB, I would need to own gun for at least an year in U.S right or it has changed?

Thanks.

see http://indiansforguns.com/viewtopic.php ... 9&start=60

or contact your local Indian embassy for more details. failing that contact the MHA and or customs they will guide you.

you will find that noting new can be added to the subject. as it has been dealt with in the above link.
