    Hi fatman. Pellet and BB guns are firearms in this country. Are you looking for an Airsoift toy gun?

    a gun which shoots lead pellets can also be called a pellet gun, but they need a firearms license whereas an airsoft device doesnt.

    someone else may be able to clear it up alot better....

    Airsoft guns are non lethal non harmful markers designed for games in a similar style to paintball. They fire a 6mm plastic bb. Pellet and bb guns are banned from discussion on this forum as are their sale.

    AS QUOTED FROM THE CHARTER
    * Do not use terms such as Airgun, Pellet gun or anything which refers to a firearm or weapon. They are not the same thing. Repeat offense will result in a temporary ban. Continued use may result in longer bans or outright permanent bans.

    I'm sure you have all read it and don't intend to continue a conversation the breaches the charter..........

    There are plenty of for sale threads so I think we can close this one.
