    Yes, anything firing a projectile with a force over 1 joule needs a license.

    dont get hung up on power! i used to do alot of field target shooting and hunting with air rifles and most of the new comers wanted the biggest,most powerful spring gun they could get their hands on, the lads i shot with used 12ft lb precharged air rifles as did myself,,
    my dad used an air arms tx 200 spring gun under lever it was 12ft lb in .177.. and for hunting it was a real good pot filler, anything out to 90 yards was in the bag

    I had a tx200 12ft lbs and couldn't hit a barn door at 90 yards and it was a 22
