The ISHAPORE Rifle 7.62mm 2A/2A1[2] (also known as the Ishapore 2A/2A1)[2] is a 7.62×51mm NATO calibre bolt-action rifle adopted as a reserve arm by the Indian Armed Forces in 1963. The design of the rifle – initially the Rifle 7.62mm 2A – began at the Rifle Factory Ishapore of the Ordnance Factories Board in India, soon after the Sino-Indian War of 1962.[3]

The Ishapore 2A/2A1 has the distinction of being the last bolt-action rifle designed to be used by a regular military force other than specialized sniper rifles. The rifle is based on Lee–Enfield rifle. While they are no longer in service with the Indian military, the rifle is still used by the Indian police.[1] .
