If i am not wrong, once your licence has been issued, you are supposed to buy your weapon within 6 months or you are supposed to extend that period by applying for an extension. does this rule hold true even after the sale of a weapon. once i sell my weapon, am i supposed to get another one within 6 months?
thanx

Re: sale of weapons
Dear Archer,
One you sell your weapon, you have 3 months to buy a weapon or you need to apply for an extension which is easily granted generally.I know some people here who have applied for an extension 3 times.Thats nine months, stating that they could not find a good weapon.I think the local DCP can extend it for a max of 3 times, after that, you have to apply to the Home Dept., for an extension.
Correct me if I am wrong Abhijeet.

Re: sale of weapons
hello ashar
in theory your licence is valid for the period it was issued usually 3 years, that means your permission to purchase a weapon is upto the time of your renewal. in practice, however it depends on the whims and fancies of the clerk in the gun section. i may be digressing, but i had a licence for a npb rifle and tried to buy the .22 of a friend of mine deposited at apollo arms (commented on earlier). i kept on asking for extensions and they kept on giving, finally getting it lapsed as i had moved from the place of issue. i persevered and managed to acquire the .22 with a new licence
