Gun Licence and Training Certificate-Karnatak

[sanju200n]

Hello friends,
Bit confused and need some help..I applied for a gun licence in Karnataka and fulfilled all the requirements asked by DC..he was above to sign my licence.someone porked his nose and he mentioned about training certificate..after this, they are asking me to produce "Training Certificate". I know there is only one training center in Bangalore-KSRA and I am not in Bangalore. should i get certificate from KSRA or is there any other training body in Karnataka? some one was telling me that even we can approach SP office in district headquarter for rifle handling course..is that true????

thanks

Training certificate is not a legal requirement under Arms Act 1959.

Send an RTI asking or the section under which training certificate is required and information regarding training centers recognized by the dm's office. They will be unable to answer both, and you shall have your argument...

Hi mate can you please tell which part of Karnataka are you from. You will need to get a CRTC certificate for applying firearms license in Bangalore. Yes even though its not a legal requirement under Arms Act 1959. The Babus take this seriously and its good to do a safety course too without this you cant even apply for a license leave getting one. You can do it KSRA or Bangalore CAR which is in Market...
