Hi everyone,
It’s a dream and passion to start an air gun store.
I would like to know what all licences am I supposed to get for starting a store.
Request the seniors and legal experts to guide and help me.
Regards,
Kiran

Re: Wanted to start an air gun store
As per my knowledge you don't need any permission/license to sell .177 air rifles/pistols.
To sell .22 air rifles/pistols you need license on Form VII C of the Arms Rules 2016. Also as per Arms rules 2016, you can sell the .22 air rifles/pistols to the person having license to purchase these.
It is due to this rule, major companies like Precihole have stopped manufacturing of .22 air rifles. Some say that there is stay from court on this rule but I am not sure about that.
Hope it helps.
