Dear Sirs and forum members, is there any restriction on the number of airguns one can purchase? I have a Precihole Athena. Thinking of getting the SDB Sniper too.

There is no limit on number of airgun .177 calibre you can own. Go ahead and buy it if that's your choice. However, the latest arms rules prescribed that you should report it to the nearest police station.

I'm sorry, I'm too lazy to read the lengthy rules again and I, therefore, cannot post the article numbers. As lazy as I am, a quick google search showed me one of such notification from Government of Mizoram. It seems like they even have Airgun Licensing Authority as it was written in the notification.

This article in not in English, so couldn't understand it. But it looks like a local state govt notice. AFAIK airguns of .177 caliber are exempted from any license requirements.
