Hi all,
Do we have facilities for air rifle shooting in and around Delhi? Independent clubs or DSRA facilities. I saw one earlier post about Dwarka Shooting club but the member who posted about the club has been non-responsive about it's existence and my efforts to locate the club have not fetched any results so far. I am looking for Air Rifle shooting facilities to start with.
Appreciate your help in this regard.

1) The DDA Sports Complex, Shri Fort, has a 10m airgun range. It is open to both members & non-members.
2) I believe someone has opened a private range at some college/ institute in Faridabad as well, maybe someone here can provide you with further details on that.
3) For airguns, don't discount the possibility of setting up a small private range at home... you'll end up shooting a lot more if you do that! Of course this presupposes a few things and may not be an option for everyone.
Cheers!

Re: Shooting facilities in and around Delhi
Good work, dude.
Jeff Cooper advocated four basic rules of gun safety:
1) All guns are always loaded. Even if they are not, treat them as if they are.
2) Never let the muzzle cover anything you are not willing to destroy.
3) Keep your finger off the trigger till your sights are on the target.
4) Identify your target, and what is behind it.
