How to engage in shooting in Greece

The simplest and most widespread solution to try is the purchase of an airgun (which, in our country, is allowed for the people over the age of 18) and your initiation to shooting with different simple targets at a safe private space, covered or open air. It should be reminded that although the gun's purchase and possession is allowed for adults, their use according to the Law must be made in specialised places, destined for that cause.

Though the Club you can exercise in organised Shooting Grounds and also practise and train properly.

Most of the Clubs can provide (in the Shooting Ground) any kind of guns for you so that you can exercise, but also they can give you advice for right shooting and training. The targets you will shoot at will be the Recognized targets of the International Confederationsand the Shooting Federation of Greece and you will be able to participate in games/tournaments organized regurarly for many shooters categories even from your first steps in the sport.
