    But I can't help feeling a little sad to think that we might only see you once a year.
    Once a year unless I hold an airgun event in Portugal?
    To be fair, it'll take a few years of planning I think so it's not going to happen immediately mate

    Airgun laws in portugal

    AirGun laws in Portugal are NOT based on velocity but on a 24 joule limit (equivalent to around 17 fpe). It would make little sense having a velocity limit as you could exceed said limit with a lighter pellet for the same energy . Guns sold by main seller, Mundilar are all regulated to 24 joules.
    Transportation should be on a case or bag ,ammo in a separate container or pouch and no hunting allowed. No license needed but you must be over 18 to purchase.
    Hope this helps.Rgds
    John

    Guid luck with your plans Rhys if you decide to go ahead.

    I had a great holiday in Portugal some years ago, albeit on the southern Algarve coast. Weather was fantastic and I can see the attractions of going there to live. Great for the bike 🏍 as well!
    A’ the Best,
