Re: No. Of wpns on licence
The section you have pointed out is for grant of license to sports person.
The section which allows a person to keep 3rd weapon as .22 rifle is Chapter III, section 13 (3) (a) (ii) of Arms Act 1959 and there is no mention of two years there.

Re: No. Of wpns on licence
hi, i'm an aspiring shooter and i have mentioned in many places about my funny lcense whch grants me a 22 rifle with additonal bore 3006( had asked for 2 seperate licenses in my applicaton) but now i couldnt find such a weapon and couldnt import as am not an renowned shooter, when i ask an amendment for two lcenses they say that they cant grant two weapons, so my doubt s that s it at the mercy of the commiiisioner for granting two weapons to an aspiring shooter or is t a ruleAnand wrote: ↑Sun Sep 13, 2020 8:21 pmTo make it simple:
1.One license Book in Navy Blue Colour for Permissable Firearms (NP Bore) up to a maximum of 2 firearms only (earlier it was 3).
Ammunition allowed: 100 at one time 200 per year.
2.Maroon Colour License Book for Restricted Firearms(what was earlier called Prohibited Bore/ PB). Options open for electronic/smartcard type licenses
in future.
