You best bet to legally having this airgun in your house would be to get your father to purchase it and then you and him can go and target shoot together. If you don't have a PAL and you live in canada your not going to be able to legaly obtain a Sumatra 2500. I believe the minimum age for obtaining a PAL license is eighteen but you can take the hunter and safety course at fifteen.

You can also get a minor's firearms license at age 12 that allows you to possess but not acquire firearms. You'd still need someone 18 or older to obtain a PAL in order to purchase and own the rifle. You could then use it without supervision if you obtained a minor's license.
