"The Air Gun as a Serious Weapon" by H Marks

[buttloaves]

He also used the word 'weapon' which earned me a reprimand on here.

Still, what did they know? Just guessing most of the time.....

An airgun is a weapon, something designed to cause bodily harm or damage, id say an airgun falls into that catagory.
I know where people are coming from, to serious airgun users they're not weapons as you imagine a weapon something that is used against people, our quarry has a body also and an airgun will cause damage, a knife is a weapon and a bow or crossbow, they're designed for that purpose, to use a thing as a weapon is different, a brick or a lump of wood can become a weapon but a gun will always be a weapon.
