After testing successfully at the Kanpur ordnance factory, it has been exhibited at two Gun Houses in Lucknow and Kanpur. Bookings for the revolvers have already begun.

The price of the Indian version of the 0.32 calibre Webley & Scott revolver has been fixed at Rs 1.38 lakh. With 28 per cent GST, the actual cost will be a little over Rs 1.75 lakh.
