No.
There are air rifles and there are air guns. These are guns that use air or C02 to fire a BB or Pellet, not gunpowder. A DAISY RED RYDER BB Rifle would be considered an "air rifle." There are several companies that make air guns and air rifles. Gamo, Daisy, Crosman, and Umarex are a few of these companies.
No.
yes
Smoothbore guns utilizing spring, gas or air to propel BBs are not "firearms" under state statutes. Rifled guns are considered to be firearms.
Yes. An air rifle is not considered a firearm, thus a felons possession is not limited.
You mean Air Rifle. Yes this is fine. Air rifles (Not AirSoft) usually fire between 500 FPS and 1200 FPS
please state the model number and the condition of the rifle. Is this a 22 rim-fire or air rifle?
Don't put as much air in the rifle. If you have a dial to set the power then use it. As you shot the power drops. You can dry fire some PCP air rifles.
It depends on the air rifle. All 177 air pistols and rifles fire 177 ammo. Some will fire, only pellets. Some can only fire, BB's. But, some can shoot both. And. Brake barrel air weapons can fire, special darts. But, DON'T, fire darts through a rifled barrel. You can do it but it can damage it. Only through a smooth bore barrel. When in doubt, check with the maker of YOUR gun.
The Olympic air pistol and air rifle events use a .177 caliber pellet. The biathlon (skiing and shooting) uses a .22 caliber rim fire rifle.
If it's a C02 powered system then yes you can dry fire it. If it's a spring powered system the NO do not dry fire it. It will damage the system.
