I think your price is pretty unrealistic as far as what you have outlined. Such an air pistol will cost you a minimum of 25 thousand in mumbai . A self import will cost anything between 16-18 k.

Add another $100 for shipping. There are reams of pages on importing air pistols on the board. READ IT FIRST!
It has been explained ad nauseum. Secondly, post an introduction about yourself.

Dear Kaustabh,
there is a page of introduction where (as in daily life everywhere in front of an unknown person) you introduce yourself out of politeness and courtesy.
'Hello everybody, I am Kaustabh from Mumbai. I am a fan of air weapons from my childhood.. etc. etc.' something like this you know.

I was reading a book yesterday on Generation Y. The book (based on vast research) says that this generation among many other characteristics, is less courteous and wants everything immediately :D . But that is in France.

Come on Kaustabh, we are Indians. We are known for our patience and perseverance. Please take some time out and search in the airgun chapter. There are long posts on airgun import procedures and experiences by so many members of this forum.

BTW, welcome to the forum and enjoy your stay with us.

Check out IHP's PCP AP - approx ~12K -> Competition preparation - not recommended for shooting BBs. Mr. Makhija's cell must be there someplace. Call him for the q on BB. You will require filling facility which either a scuba tank or an imported or an india pump will satisfy. BTW have you completed a basic course (incl safety) in AR/ AP ? If not check with Savarkar at Dadar or MRA at Worli. Details and contact info already posted. Good Luck and safe shooting.

friend,
indian airpistols are a big waste,so go for something imported or find some used pistols.our sales section might have one or local armoury might.
