They can, but that's a terrible way to use one, unless you're using it for legitimate hunting.
small animals and birds.
BB guns are NOT for hunting. It will not kill a deer. The Answer is NO.
Depending on the power of the BB gun. They will kill most any small or medium size bird. However BB guns are not designed for hunting, Pellet guns and rifles make a better choice. BB do not deform on impact and the bird will suffer before death. Hunting with a pellet rifle is more humane. Pellets (especially hollow point pellets) mushroom on impact and make a clean kill.
The only thing that can kill with a BB ball is a small squirrel and a chipmunk and small birds.But with the pellets you can kill small game and game birds(only if your BB gun is a shotgun can only use a shotgun to kill birds because it is against the law to kill birds with a bow and arrow,crossbow,hand gun and , rifle. OK now we move on to the pellets. If you buy the pellets you can kill anything ranging from chipmunk to coyote. BB guns can only hunt small game so when you buy a BB gun look at the packing and see if it can be used for small game hunting and remember BB shotgun only...if you want to hunt game birds. ENJOY HUNTING YOUR SMALL GAME!
yes
you can, but it'll probably take a lot of BB's considering most bb guns are .17 cailber

BB guns are not designed for hunting. The best you can do is kill small rodents.
Yes it is passable, so don't ever aim a BB gun at a person. Buy the way, BB guns usually don't travel at 1200 FPS Pellet guns do.
Birds can be killed with a BB gun at close range. Larger animals, such as squirrels and rabbits are not likely to be killed, but would be AT LEAST injured- which is not a good thing for a hunter- so don't try it. Pellet guns typically have more power, and SOME pellet guns are used for hunting small game.
No. Some BB guns use a magnet to hold the BB in place until it is fired
BB guns are legal in California
