Request for Info | First hand Exp|Siri Fort

Post by gverma » Tue Mar 16, 2010 8:02 pm

Hi
I live in South Delhi, Safdarjung Enclave. Up till now I have been shooting in my own private, self made, improvised air gun range made on my roof.

I would lke to join Siri fort range. I have gone through the following links

http://indiansforguns.com/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=956
http://indiansforguns.com/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=8711
http://indiansforguns.com/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=7766

and have found the following
Address: August Kranti Marg, New Delhi - 110 049 (Near Siri Fort Auditorium)
Contact Nos. Reception - 26497482, 26496657
Tele Fax - 26496672
Secretary - 26496286

There broshure is also easily downloadable.

Does anyone have any first hand exp there or is a member of the place? Is it easy to go once a week and fire using your own guns for around 30 min. Or will I be faced with endless lines of babu's (sorry I am making assumptions... but this is what happens to us most of the time)

Tahnks
Regards
Gaurav

I got an impression that they are running the place as some sort of private enterprise, the range belong to SAI as far as I know, to compare to SAI range in Hyderabad it is Rs 510 per month and they do not charge for rifle or pistols use any extra or for air.

The Siri Fort Shooting range is a 10m air pistol / rifle range where pay by the hour and also can hire weapons to fire. They also have PCP filling facility (via cylinder). There is no problem... pay and use...!
