Caliber .177.
Indian Air pistols are only for fun and not for sport.
IHP compressed air pistol was very good but they are no more in production.
You have to look for imported stuffs only.

Hi,Ajjun.If you are serious for 10 m pistol event ,i would suggest you to first join a shooting club.The coaches will guide you properly. Answering your queries, for 10 m pistol event you need to have a good imported pistol which costs about 1 lakh and above.Pistols and Pellets are easily available online ,go through some sites and compare the prices.You can also import one if you are a member of a shooting club. I cannot comment on quality of NRAI pistols,because i have not bought from them. For 10m event ,the pistol has to be strictly a .177 not .22. You don't need to spend much as compared to rifle and shotgun events.
