Hello Experts
how about a 1> 0.32 Pistol, 2> DBBL and 3> 0.22 Rifle - & Life Member of a Rifle Club. do we need to deposit or can keep all of them being a life member of affiliated club? Please advice.
The safe way is to give application to your DM or ADM mentioning that as per new rules one keep two firearms of any type and third weapon a .22 rifle if one is member of any rifle club recognized by central government.

Tell him that you are member of rifle club and therefore eligible to keep third weapon .22 rifle. Then see what their reply is and act accordingly.
Thank you for information Vineet. Appreciate.

It is legal if and when you have it endorsed on an arms licence. You will have to apply for it if you don't have one. A period of one year is allowed to deposit weapons in excess of the limit of two permissible under the Act, from the date of its coming into force i.e. February 12, 2020.
