Latest news and shooting tips

Why do you need pistol shooting insurance?

First of all, pistols and revolvers can be expensive, so considering insurance cover for your guns is a wise move. With protection in place, you are covered for damage, loss or theft of your shooting equipment. However, pistol insurance is only partly about protecting your expensive guns.

Public Liability cover will ensure that should you injure someone else or damage their property whilst on a shoot, you are protected for legal fees and any subsequent settlement if you are sued. Many shooting venues will require to see proof of Public Liability insurance before allowing you to start shooting.

If you are travelling overseas our Shooting Insurance policy  automatically covers you in Europe, but if you want extra protection for things such as flight cancellations or emergency medical expenses should you get injured, take a look at our Sports Travel Insurance policy.
