Picked up a HECK of a nice 1950 GRI Ishapore over the weekend. All numbers match, beautiful wood, fantastic bore, non wire wrapped. Now, I realize that India gained it's independence in '47 ( or '48?), and that it took some time for the transition to occur, hence the post independence date along with the GRI..I was just curious as to what the latest date was some of you may have seen bearing the GRI stamp. Also, this rifle was missing the magazine. Did Ishapore manufacture these as well, or did they simply use Brit manufactured mags?
Happy New Year everyone!
