was just browsing Feinwerkbau's website. some rifles do require licences since they have long range shots. i guess some of these bullets can damage a person enough to kill him if fired from a close range.

i've seen rifle practice in school - when shot from abt 50ft far off, the metal pellets penetrate wood to abt 1cm deep (wood is abt 4 inches thick).

Hey guys . . . where can i get a good Air Gun in Bangalore ?
I bought a regular one from SGP road here for ~1600 from a Arms shop....but wanted good gun where i could learn / practise aiming . .

I remember seeing a Air Gun with really good Bino & a small laser too...it was bought from Kanpur ( i dont remember ) , this i had seen at a frnds place ~2 years back..he had @ that time told he had got it for ~2500. . . Any idea where i could find such items here in bangalore?

Thnx.

Where exactly do u think, you will practise aiming after you get the gun :S ??

Are you talkiong about real guns or Air powered ones ?

There is a legal limit to the power of Air Rifles - which is set at 12 ft. lbs. for air rifles and 6 ft. lbs. For air pistols. Google if you want more info on what this ft/lb means.

Commercially available Air Rifles/Pistols are made to be within this limit.

This is NOT a normal Air Rifle. This seems to be a GAS operated Rifle - it has more power and therefore over the legal limits. This is not useable without a Police liscence. GAS operated weapons are amazing to handle as they have no "kick" as the projectile leaves the weapon.

Recoil, as it is called, cannot be avoided except for in case of some large caliber rifles, such as a few anti-tank weapons in WW2. Technically, you can only lessen the recoil effect, not overcome it.

^^^ I owned a Crossman GAS operated Air pistol and it had no recoil - if any it was minimal. It felt odd having the pellet leave the barrel with a loud bang and not to feel a recoil. Firing this Crossman GAS pistol was like firing a starters cap gun at the races - a lot of noise. But it had very little pellet pushing power.

Theoben patented the Gas ram system. It works just like a spring piston, but instead of a spring, when you cock the weapon, it will compress air behind the piston (gas cylinder). When you pull the trigger, the effect is the same as a spring air rifle. Gas rams are more powerful than the spring pistons. Another advantage is that they offer consistent power for longer i.e springers need to be tuned once in a while, and the spring will also lose power after a while, but that isn't so with the gas weapons.

I didn't know we had that limit in India! My friend's WH was over 20Ft/lb!! - a .22 pellet could go through half an inch of wood easily ! (then again, he had it imported from the US, where the UK restrictions of 12ft/lb don't apply). It touches 800+ FPS according to specs and has a tuned piston and (expensive) German mainspring.

Recoil, as it is called, cannot be avoided except for in case of some large caliber rifles, such as a few anti-tank weapons in WW2. Technically, you can only lessen the recoil effect, not overcome it.

Yamaraj, because of the weight of the air rifle, and the lightness of the pellet, the effects of recoil are negligible in air weapons. For pistols like the FWB that Eazy has, they have a mechanism which will eliminate recoil (the back of the pistol will absorb the recoil and then move forward again... you have to see it in action!). However, in powder based weapons, there is bound to be recoil i.e shotguns or the older .303 rifles that our police force has.
