They can start exporting these guns to pakisthan and other such peaceful nations.

Govt. should encourage such industry to defeat the fascist Hindu terror network.

To making Bombs 9for bursting), LMG's (for shooting) & Stones (for pelting), thanks largely due to the patronage by Pakistan in popualrising them in Kashmir.

I was outraged too. But it seems this is more of royalty guns - not used to kill people but as status and art symbols by rich people.

The skill would be appreciated in other peaceful states of India
by hotz on Jan 11, 2011 08:26 PM

I think the gunsmiths must focus their efforts to legally export and market their products to other peaceful states of India by negotiating with the government to produce beyond the quota,

The domestic quota is essential due to the prevailing situation in Indian state of jammu and kashmir..

If the quality is better than the guns what many rural police officers use..It can be procured for our forces using outdated technology as well as preserve the culture at the same time..

Government must take initiative to export this to other countries like US legally as a cultural item expressing an skill in the form of art..

It's good gunsmiths are gone

Otherwise the local goons would have been shooting people instead of pelting stones. why can't these people think of an industry beyond guns, stones, drugs, and violence? It is considered to be a virtue when preteenagers pelt stones on people rather than attending school. What a sick society!
