Joking aside, ask the adult who will be taking you out shooting to take you to a gun shop and have a squizz at the stuff in there. If they've got a second hand section you may pick up a bargain there, but make sure you have someone with you who knows what they're looking at. If you find out what sort of gun you're after, have a look on guntrader.co.uk or similar :good:

Here is the chapter and verse from the BASC Air Rifles code of practice. here endeth the lesson

 

WHO CAN SHOOT

18 years

If you are 18 years or older there are no restrictions on buying

an air rifle and ammunition, and you can use it where you

have permission to shoot.

14 – 17 years

YOU CAN

• borrow an air rifle and ammunition

• use an air rifle, without supervision, on private premises

where you have permission

YOU CANNOT

• buy or hire an air rifle, or ammunition, or receive one as a gift.

Your air rifle and ammunition must be bought and looked after

by someone over 18 – normally your parent, guardian or some

other responsible adult.

• have an air rifle in a public place unless you are supervised by

somebody aged 21 or over, and you have a reasonable excuse to

do so (for example, while on the way to a shooting ground).

Under 14 years

YOU CAN

• use an air rifle under supervision on private premises with

permission from the occupier - normally the owner or tenant.

The person who supervises you must be at least 21 years old.

YOU CANNOT

• buy, hire or receive an air rifle or its ammunition as a gift, or

shoot, without adult supervision.

Parents or guardians who buy an air rifle for use by someone

under 14 must exercise control over it at all times, even in the

home or garden.

It is illegal to sell an air rifle or ammunition to a person

under 18 years of age.
