N yeah friends please give me some Market rates of both of this so I can buy a weapon in good price.....

Thanking you,
Pratik Patel

With Bespoke on this.None of the handguns you list is a 'Best Gun".All are commercially produced guns that are obscenely expensive only because there is a ban on imports and also because IOF guns are so shoddily made.

Thank you sir,
I know about price but sir one of my friend have a colt detactive special n his father having a iof .32 revolver but he is saying that if you want a good handgun than go for imported one it will b costly because of import ban but it is far better then iof revolver. N he said me that all imported gun is old before 86...

detective special

welcome aboard mate!My 2 cents,go for the revolver,not that the Walther isn't good,its a legend!

Sir I found in IFG n there is beretta so what you say for beretta???

I'd go with the revolver for a a lot of reasons. The caliber is better than .380, easy to use, easy to rely on, easy to maintain/repair. Overall side by side, the revolver is a better choice when compared next to a semi-auto. But if you want to pretend to be James Bond (I do too), get the ppk.

Buy the gun in better condition. If i were you i'd look at the condition first. then if they were equally good then I would buy the revolver as i am a revolver fan.I would ideally like to have both a revolver as well as a semiauto but if i can have only one gun it is the revolver. The pros and cons you have to decide for yourself and should be able to make up your mind reading previously posted posts on the subject.

hi everyone,
i guess it comes down to preferanece while choosing revolver or a pistol,there has been a lot of discussion about which being a better weapon.but i am sure about one thing if it has to be your first arm and if u are not that proficient with the working of a pistol then revolvolver is a wise option.

Ditto to Mr Sharma. I would also check for the condition first , if they appear to be same in all aspect , Colt Detective Special would be my choice. Walther PPK is a nice fancy name , specially due to Mr Bond. but in US most people dont rely on it as their personal defense gun for everyday carry due to its feeding problem and no wonder why its called as Jammomatic in US. You may like to check the below discussion a lot of mixed feedback though. but the bottomline is its NOT reliable in compare to its price and other guns avialable in the market. and in Indian scenerio Colt .32 would be a wise choice in compare to ammo availability and reliability if conditions are same as per my opinion.

S&W model 31 ( lot more around than Colt) would be a batter choice in terms of price and availability... I do owns PP in 7.65 but I would suggest go for revolver....
