Indians For Guns

Hi Experts.

My name is David, 26 Years old, Indian Citizen, Temporary Address in Bangalore, permanent address in Trivandrum, Kerala. No Police cases in India. I would like to buy a .315 Sporting Rifle from Bangalore for Sporting and Display purposes. Would I be able to buy one in Bangalore as I am not a permanent resident here, or do I have to buy one from my home town and get a transport license for it (I don’t have a land line, nor a gas connection in Bangalore) However I do have a “Valid Passport” “Temporary Residential Address Proof” “Company Address Proof” “PAN Card” “Income Tax Sheet” etc

Would appreciate it of I could know how much a .315 Sporting Rifle with scope is plus taxes.

Looking forward to a reply

Hi,

Before a gas connection or any thing else you need to have a firearms licence .Hope you have that before you can buy a 315 Bore Rifle.

For starters get in touch with some Bangalore members...
You need the above form and also the police report, in duplicate.Check and down load appropriate forms from down loads section?

Caste certificate -applies in UP
Proof of residence
Medical certificate-to prove fitness and sanity.a format would be:



name
age
sex
s/o
w/o
R/o

Does not report any history suggestive of psychiatric disorder.No active psychopathology could be detected on his/her current mental stateexamination.
He/she is well oriented to time, place, person , with preserved judgement.

Name
Reg No and seal of issuing physician.


Broadly...
State variations apply, I think in Blr, one has to undergo a formal rifle handling/training programme, and PAY for the police verification FORMALLY, unlike here, where chunna is the word used, more if it falls around festival time Holi, Diwali Eid etc teh cops are very secular in that
