You guys are enjoying a lot and I am going green in a far off land :) ...
I will be in Kolkata around Durga Pujo. So there must be one meeting at that time with all. Right?

Great to see all the brothers in arms...

Take care and enjoy!

Hi everyone, I feel proud to be an IFGian and a participant of Sunday’s meet at Swajanda’s house. Swajanda’s hosting and arrangement was marvelous. This IFG meet is also memorable as we not only shoot ARs but also fired the FAs. As Saptarshi said in his earlier post that the firing was done with proper security measures and expert guidance :mrgreen: . All the participants enjoyed the meet. The missing pistol in the pictures is Prasen123’s LP10.

Every ingredient was there in the meet – guns, ammo, drinks, mouth watering food and joyful “addabazi”. Swajanda, you are great. And Tanmoyda this time also I missed you. Please attend the next IFG K meet.

Hi Lawman,
I will not meet the next meet for anything on earth. This Sunday I got really trapped in unforeseen circumstances. Nice pictures brother.

:cheers:

If in the next meet if TC is not there, he will be imposed a severe fine, not because he was not present this time but because, I cooked separately for him as he is presently out of spice, and I had a burn in my finger.
We also missed his lovely collections and a shot or two. :(
It was a great day full of enjoyment we also missed Tripassion and his lovely kids and wife whom we met last time. The mesmerizing smell of ammo and wine led me to think, next when...... ?. 8)

It was a murky day in June 13, affected by irritating rain all day long, received a call from to_saptarshi,”Basusa aaschen to robar ?, (Basuda are you coming on Sunday ?) I said yes.
As per plan Prasen123 picked me from home and we reached at Swajan’s place, sorry, palace, earliest.
We were treated with warmth as we walked up to his drawing room. Swajan was typed as man behind the dark glasses, this time not.
Soon we were introduced with Mrs. Sen, better half of the host, the lady behind all activities silently.
We launched in Bangla adda. Prasen123 came with 0.22 bore revolver fully loaded.
He shared his experience as even at his school days he was a Majnu for firearms. The story was goose flashing.
Meanwhile Swajan showed his collections, Bejamin Discovery, Diana, BSA and some others too.
My attention was drawn to a rare collection of gravity based Crossman under lever in .22 that takes 15 balls at a time. This gun has a nice story behind it. I would request Swajan to share that in forum.
Our adda was further strengthened with the arrival of of to_sapratshi with his better half, Mrs.Karobi.I immediately uncovered the secret of saptarshi that before going to sleep, he thinks about the weapons, at least for an hour.Mrs Karobi laughed loudly at that.
Saptarshi is a truly gun crazy person. He started handling the guns, just on arrival, with so much of ease as if he designed all of them. I was truly amazed by his knowledge and knowhow.
Now appeared Major Garg with his better half Mrs. Nilanjana and sweet little daughter.
The adda got appropriate ghee to raise the temperature.He was equipped with Ashani pistol and a .22 LR.
I asked a stupid question to Mrs. Nilajana that, is Major is as tough back home as on duty? She smiled and said, rather just opposite.
Major had numerous real experiences. Mrs. Nilanjana, Mrs. Karobi and Mrs. Sen were also party to our diverse topics of adda.
The sweet little daughter was also started enjoying her presence there.
The door bell rung, the man appeared none other than Lawman with a very childish smile on his face.
I met him earlier also. A non-smoker and non-drinker. A very modest young man.
He started off loading his arms from waist area. First 0.22 caliber revolvers fully loaded then Welther PPK and finally .177 IHP pistol. That very sight frightened me.
My hats off to Swajan and his wife who immaculately arranged everything.
Swajan had a private range where we did quite a bit of firing including AR. Prasen123’s revolver was liked by all respected ladies including youngest of all, the daughter.
I had taken my two highly tuned ARs, National-25 and Local-35, both in .177.I am happy that Prasen123, saptarshi and Lawman appreciated these guns and most surprisingly my Local-35 was rated higher than National-25.
My desire to become Bond got half fulfilled as in the pic frame the sensual girl was missing. This vacuum cannot or should not be filled in by better half in any day because it will tarnish the image of Bond.
(I request the reader to consider my age before prosecuting me, I love to be henpecked)

We all enjoyed every moment of the meet and I thank all those who were present and my special thanks goes to Swajan and his better half Mrs. Sen.

TC , why not a fact finding commission to be constituted by two lawyers to prosecute your absence?
We missed you….

Why Basu has been suspended ? I am very surprised.
