Follow the following easy steps

1. Buy an air rifle or air pistol depending upon your interest
2. At home start hitting simple targets like tin cans or printed paper targets
3. http://www.targetshooter.co.uk/
4. Depending upon where you live join a shooting range and go there to shoot with imported guns or may be even your own rifle. If you are in Delhi goto Sirifort stadium
5. Once you are more interested let me know we can talk more

If you are a beginner just simply go to gun shop or perhaps shop online. With regards to legality you might inquire from your place of what particular documents needed.

@ kirnkmr
1. Please search this forum, the question is already discussed a number of times in relevant threads. If any question remains unanswered, please ask in that thread.
2. No license required if the air rifle passes the deal wood test.
3. Please search this forum. If any question remains unanswered, please ask in that thread.

Above everything else, practice safe shooting. Do not ever forget gun safety rules.

Thanks for your time.
Can any one tell me how much they will charge for the shipment, and also will it be worth it if i purchase the rifle cover, pellets and the rust remover from aimco itself.

Guys please let me know how to get weapons licence, how to learn proper and safe shooting and stuff like that.
It will be more helpful if someone from bangalore lets me know more about the shooting clubs and shooting association.
