I am glad to see these so well kept and well displayed. I have seen and heard horror stories of museum upkeep in India, especially the smaller museums.

This is just eye candy! Thanks for posting!

Charles, unfortunately you are right about the state of museums in India (and elsewere), even the two that these pictures come from, one has many weapons behind chicken wire, the other has a huge number of weapons so high up on its walls that nobody could possibly get a good look at them. With all of the fabulous weapons in Indian museuma there are not many good, detailed images that can be easily found. I was hoping that forum memebrs would have some additional ones.

Here are links to the high resolution images.
