I love all AIR-WEAPONS , BIG AORWPONS AND SMALL AURWAPINS ....sorry I just had to got round somebody's idea of blanket banning the word a.i.r.w.e.a.p.o.n. on this forum .
The Law is very clear on the matter .
Despite all the gassing over sensibilities , try and argue any of these fanciful day dream ideas with a POLICE OFFICER .
Nobody cares a monkeys about us , our lost in the mists of childhood ideas of collecting and using airguns ... an airgun is an A.I.R.W.E.A.P.O.N. to the only people that matter these days ( the ones that can handcuff / tazer/ gas you ) ....The Law .
You won't win any argument to the contrary with them .
