My experience with dealers,need suggestions
hii ppl ,
As i told in my previous post that , am luking for a decent DBBL , so i went to a few dealers in Delhi NCR , and Meerut too , wud like to share my experience with every1 , and also need some more suggestions to finalise my gun.......... .
Mostly all the imported DBBLs i saw ......were not in a gud condition , all of them were repaired and used a lot , they were just average or below avg. in condition , i saw only a cpl of english and Belgium guns in a gud condition , they were asking around 1.5-1.7lacs , but cudn't find any recognized brand gun as such to see even , n obviously cudn't find O/U imported DBBL to see also.... only the modern O/U was available with a few of them , and also a Khurmi , and Meher singh , they all were around 25k-30k.
Some Russian guns were available , they were around 50-55k , and some czech guns were around 60k-80k , but again there condition were not gud enuf , all were repaired , and not maintained properly.
I like the Meher singh O/U barrell with ejectors , however it is a second hand gun , but in a very gud condition , n i found it lighter thn the Modern O/U gun , the asking price was 28k , shall i go for it .... Plss share your experiences of Meher singh O/U DBBL....!!!!!
I also liked one English DBBL SxS 28" , the asking price is 1.5lacs , the gun is in a gud condition ....... is that the appropriate price for this gun ?
Thnkyou.... waiting for the suggestions soon

I am also looking for a O/U. Can you help me out. Which dealer(s) have Modern O/U and how much are they asking?

Re: My experience with dealers,need suggestions
The quoted price is quite high for a SxS, what is the name of the manufacturer? Don't discount the old IOF SxS (copy of the old BSA sidelocks), they usually are good value for money and pretty much the best made Indian SxS shotguns in the market...
