Rifle Club Membership; Bangalore
Posted: Thu Feb 24, 2011 2:55 am
Dear all
.
I understand that a Shooting Club membership is a MANDATORY requirement when importing a 0.177" airgun via courier/post. I also see that a lot of you guys get your toys this way. What I wan't to know is, how did you secure that membership? I am from Bangalore and I understand that KSRA is the only such Rifle Association around. Also, the procedure for membership is not easy; attend "Civilian Courses" for some weeks, clear it, and then they decide if membership should be granted or not !!? As expected this is plainly bureaucratic. So ... do you all go through all this, or am I missing something here?
