Hi
I am Shailendra, I am a native of Hyderabad AP. It is nice to see an Indian online forum for shooters. It has been some time since I have shoot anything (moving around) , recently it is pulling me back and I found you.
I like shooting and motor sports. I have 2 local made air rifles and a air pistol and pneumatic rifle from IHP / National. Tried fire arms but gave up on license after trying and on the motor sport side I was fortunate to be at Australian F1 Grand Prix to see Narain Karthikeyan on his first f1 race it felt good. Hope to enjoy and learn from your company
.
Thanks
Shailendra

Welcome Shailendra. Any particular reason, why you gave up your license??

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.

Thanks 'ngrewal', Deepak and Sudesh.
Deepak, License was taking too much time and In the mean time I had the opportunity to travel ( Australia and USA). May be when I am back in India I will get back to it.
