IHP National 35 .177 Cal Rifle - New and Ready

[abhijittadpatri]

Hello Everyone,

I have been reading stuff on this forum for a while and I am truly grateful to all the members for their valuable contributions. And I mostly owe my knowledge of the Guns and Shooting stuff to IFG.

After a lot of thought, research, advise, etc., I finally ordered a IHP National 35 .177 Cal Rifle recently as I just wanted to stick with a traditional yet a reliable one. The rifle should be delivered to me anytime today and I just wanted to ask a few questions to clear the air before I launch it, as this being my first ever Air Rifle.

- What should I do first?(I am sure I will take some pictures for IFG)
- Should I clean it? Check the fittings? Tighten/Loosen something?
- Should I pull the trigger a few times without the pellets to make sure it works?
- Or any other other valuable advise on how to handle the first rifle of my life?

Kindly help me in whatever is required to be able to use it properly.

Thank you,
Abhijit

Hi Abhijit,
I'm also planning to buy one. Can you share from where and for how much you bought yours.

Hai, usually it's shipped with barrel and stock separate along with screws for fixing together, take care not to cause any scratch on barrel surface while using screwdriver. Hope you had ordered .177 pellets. Don't fire without pellets. Also before fixing barrel and stock check any obstruction on barrel hole.
