They are not illegal to own or use for plinking etc, etc but I'm afraid they are deemed illegal for any form of hunting and before anyone says it, that includes vermin control.

I've had various blackwidows and thier incarnations and had countless hours of fun with them. Never got as accurate as the utube guys, but could rattle a bean tin around the back garden at 15/20 yards using marbles.
