I am looking to buy my boy a BB gun, Air Pistol or an Air Rifle.



We've tried the fishing shop next to home essentials, however they only sell the pellets and the guns are way over priced!



Any ideas on where'd we buy either a bb gun, air pistol or an air rifle?



Thanks.

The shop up by the new bi pass roundabout has them, the one that sells boats. but I think you will find they only have the expensive ones as well.

you have to get a gun Licence even for a BB/air rifle here. Go up and talk to the lady there as she speaks perfect English and can give you all the info you need.

ive just been thru all this last week.. you need a lisence for air pistols and rifles .. there are no bb guns sold here as the have been banned. trust me unless you can get a tc to put it on thier hunting lisence for you on the qt then you have no chance.i went to all the shops in girne and lefkoa and even into nicosea.

Motorbike, you won;t be able to bring it back to Cyprus with out an import licence for Fire arms. Again you will have to get permission before hand from the Police. Even the gun shops here have a nightmere of a time with all the laws and restrictions

Yorg, please give him the number or come and have a look.



My hubby is a Brit, he imported it when we came here but has hardley used it. To get a licence you need to join a gun club like the one at Gonyeli, then you can get a gun licence. I belive all licences can cover two guns, if you want more you have to put them in say your wifes name or a family member.
