Russia clarifies rules for buying and using sport firearms
Published
Russia has clarified the rules for buying and using sport firearms. These changes are important for people who practise shooting sports and take part in competitions.
Sport firearms differ from hunting weapons. They are usually used for training and competitions in specially equipped venues, such as shooting ranges. Therefore, the rules for such weapons concern not only purchase, but also where and how they may be used.
Under the current rules, to buy a sport firearm one must obtain a permit from the state authorities. Owners are also required to comply with requirements for storing and transporting the weapon, so that it does not fall into the wrong hands and does not pose a danger to others.
Detailed conditions and all requirements for owners of sport firearms can be clarified in official sources and with the authorities that issue weapon permits. Citizens are advised to carefully study the current rules before acquiring or using such weapons.
