More people are injured by dogs every day than are injured by airguns in a year.
And let's not even mention knives.
An adult can buy a kitchen knife with a twelve inch blade in a supermarket, with no questions asked. Andpeople are stabbed to death every week in the UK.
As I said, it has nothing to do with safety.
Just another power grab by people who have a psychological fear of guns. A phobia in fact.
