Hi Folks,
My name is Cariappa and I'm from Coorg. Chanced upon this site while searching for info on air pistols and was really impressed
It feels good to be a member in this group already. Great show moderators!
Was looking around the site and some of the posts are awesome! I might have to trouble you experts with some queries soon.
Cheers!
Cariappa

Thanks for the welcome everybody
Having grown up in Coorg and dad having been a gun enthusiast, I have handled various guns and have been trained well to safely handle firearms since very young. Like most of you members have rightly mentioned in your posts, this is definitely one of the main criteria of owning guns.
Presently I own a 12 bore shot gun. Dad owned a .30 carbine which we had to later give up since it was said to be PB (Some light on this from the experts is most welcome since no one could give me proper answers to this. Some said it is possible to get a license for the same while the others say it's PB).
Thanks again for the responses
Cheers!
Anjan

it does not matter if the gun came under pb, if you have the right explaination you could have applied for a pb license.
Welcome aboard.

Welcome Anjan,
The .30 M1 Carbine could have been retained if it was converted to a single shot repeater. The caliber itself is NP but the problems arise due to the fact that it is a semi-auto.

Hey thanks Sanjiv and GG. I guess I can still get it back in that case. GG, can you give me more details on the conversion? BTW, we are going offtopic in the forum I guess
Ok...lemme post up afresh in a related thread. Thanks again.
