Hello Everyone!

Post by rajeev3275 » Sat Jan 30, 2010 3:44 pm

I am Rajeev from Noida. I work as Support manager and am interested in guns and knives. I have never fired a gun before. Time and time again, I have used the internet to find out if I can joing a range and then suddenly I found this site. Moderators Congrats! They have done a great job. I have been absorbing the information like a sponge. I don't know where to start (shooting) :mrgreen: but I am definitely going somewhere.... :D

Welcome to IFG and I am confident you will enjoy this forum, feel free to post. I am not sure if Noida has any firing range, but New Delhi has a few ranges. If anyone is aware of any firing range in Noida, please let us know.

Welcome to IFG, Rajeev from Noida and Rajeev from Pune.

Regards
Jeff Cooper advocated four basic rules of gun safety:
1) All guns are always loaded. Even if they are not, treat them as if they are.
2) Never let the muzzle cover anything you are not willing to destroy.
3) Keep your finger off the trigger till your sights are on the target.
4) Identify your target, and what is behind it.

Thank you all guys (Kanwar, Farhan, Rajeev Bhosle, Vikram, Good_boy mentor, and Rajeev from Pune! There are no firing range(s) in Noida which is very disappointing.

Tughlakabad range is closed due to the upcoming games (this is what I was told, I don't know if it is true). I want to join DSRA. I don't know if I can join living in Noida. I will call up the numbers given.

Anyone from Noida, who is already a member of a gun club/firing range? I also went through a site indiashooting.com where they charge 15000 for a 10 day course. I think the guy is Shimon. I have heard this name on the forum. It seems a bit pricey and also I am just starting out. Any suggestions?

Kanwar_76 I really like the quote you have on your post:
