No its not illegal.

It very possible that it could be illegal. It could be considered a threat that leads to Assault. Even if you don't fire the BB gun. If the person feels threatened you can

go to jail and can be charged.

You can, but whether or not you're allowed to is a different matter. If you do it, you're committing felonious assault.
