No, it is considered a firearm in the same category as its real steel counterpart.
A rock can be considered a weapon depending on how you use it. I think your question is "Can a 22 caliber Air gun be considered a firearm"You stated a 22 caliber BB gun. There is no such thing as a .22 caliber BB gun. In reality it's a .22 caliber pellet gun. BB are only made in .177 caliber.Your best answer should come from law enforcement in your area. It all depends on the location and country where you live.

Most U.S. states do not have a required age for a BB gun. The reason is, a BB gun is not classified as a firearm, so they do not fall under firearm regulations. That said, there may be some states that have stipulations on BB guns, but most don't.
It's better known as a BB Gun. A BB gun is similar to a real firearm except it uses compressed air instead of gun powder.
A BB gun uses compressed air to push a round steel "BB" out of a smoothbore barrel. It does not have the power, range, or accuracy of a firearm.
A 22 caliber rifle is a firearm and a BB gun is an air gun (Not a firearm) Now if you are asking about a .22 caliber air gun then the difference is in the size of the projectile. A BB is a hard round .175 caliber ball. The .22 caliber is a larger size pellet.
Australia requires you to have a category "A" firearm license to own a BB gun
Pretty much outside the scope of a hobbyist
In a BB gun (Not airsoft) this is considered very slow.
If it is BB or a pellet gun, yes. A real firearm, no.
Armed robbery with a bb gun would be the same charge as armed robbery with any other firearm. You will not get off on a lesser charge.
