Might be very very difficult Amit.I would say almost next to impossible.These are new weapons and even if someone has bought them on a TR, they are not allowed to sell it.

The only way a person who has brought a weapon into India on TR can sell their gun is if they have a NOC from the DGFT to sell which I would say is very difficult to obtain.

You need to genuine reason.

Amit, it is not a very good pistol in my opinion. very ammo sensitive and had feeding problem with many brands of ammo. front sight become loose after some time and you might lost it as they are changeable very easily, actually there will be many front sights of different heights as the elevation is adjusted by replacing the front sight. better try to find a Ruger or Browning Buck Mark, they are older designs and they will be available at your side.
