IOF .32 Revolver (also known as IOF 32 Revolver) is a six-shot revolver designed and manufactured by Field Gun Factory, Kanpur.[1][2]
Design
Template:Main The IOF .32 revolver is based on the Webley Mk IV .38 S&W revolver, specifically the Singapore Police Force version with a safety catch.
The smaller caliber was chosen so that it would be legal for civilian ownership under Indian law.
The revolver is a 'Break Action' self-extracting revolver[3] and uses the .32 Smith & Wesson Long (7.65mm x 23mm) cartridge.[4]
The revolver is priced at Rs.79,263 (approx. $1100 USD in late 2020) (ex-Kanpur) due to a lack of competition from private manufacturers.[5]
