I only know Loyalist Arm from long association on other matters but Do know they offer good work & take care .
As for dealing with Indian makers Iv'e had a Lot of dealings . The artisans CAN produce wonderful guns & items related . But its the Merchant who can read & speak English that cant resist nickel & dimeing (Read' Rupee & Nie Pise ing' )them down so quality suffers . You Pay Pea Nuts you get Monkeys so to speak .Having sat with them hours in a shop more like a cave developing locks Their tools are the most basic yet their skill is wonderful' I helped I think a bit with my occasional guidance. A Biscuit tin & clay hearth , charcoal for fuel , one hammer needed a knock every time required to stop the head comeing of . For case hardening they sent a boy who came back through the street (Crowded Street needless to add ) come back with a little paper bag full of Cyanide !. Bit of wind ,trip over a Saddoo and half the street would be a gonner But he didn't . Think about that when you grizzle about quality ..
PS, A Sadou is a Holy man they squat in the streets all dusty & painted looking for arms.
