You don’t need any permission from the police to shoot air guns in your garden, in fact if you have an open licence and enough space you’re free to shoot shotguns and proper rifles too.

I wouldn’t raise the issue though as if planning gets involved it could be a major ball ache

Just enjoy it quietly.
