i am not sure about bb guns, but i do know that airsoft guns are legal. Because airsoft guns are considered toys by the government, you should be allowed to use them as long as you have your orange tip on your gun and are careful who you aim at.
The previous answer does not answer the question posed. It is an opinion, and everyone has one.
The law is not state wide, it is based on the city or county where you are shooting your airsoft gun at. So like with any law it is best to contact the local authorities. The shooting of airsoft guns is illegal in Beaverton though.
The following is a quote from the (SEE THE LINK BELOW ) :
The approved ordinance regulates possession of replica firearms in public places including highways, streets, schools, places of amusement, parks, playgrounds, public transportation centers and common areas of apartments and hotels.
Under the ordinance, a replica firearm is any toy or imitation that substantially duplicates a lethal firearm or can reasonably be perceived to be an actual firearm.
The rules would not apply to brightly colored toy guns or those constructed of transparent or translucent materials.
It also does not restrict the use of replica guns on private property, including backyards.
Anyone violating the ordinance could get a citation.
Utah has no state laws governing Airsoft guns other than the federal law requiring the orange tip and the lack of any law requiring the tip to remain on the gun. However, the cities of North Ogden, Ogden, Centerville, South Jordan and South Ogden have laws prohibiting ownership of Airsoft guns. These laws have been uniformly enforced by law enforcement after an incident of mistaken identity by a police officer who faced an Airsoft gun without the orange tip and thought it was a real gun. Other cities throughout the country have laws ranging from New York City's requirement that the entire gun be made of bright colored plastic, to the perverse law in some Illinois cities that prohibit the sale or transportation of Airsoft guns but allow the removal of the orange tips.
In Ohio, airsoft guns are not considered to be firearms. But you still have to have an orange tip on the barrel of the gun. It cannot be shorter than 6mm in width. As long as you don't use them anywhere near other people and you use common sense (not brandishing them in public) you'll be fine.
Contact your local law enforcement for up to date information.
No, airsoft guns are not firearms. As long as you keep and do not modify the orange tip you should not be in violation of any state laws.
Contact your local police.
That depends on what you mean by "real guns". If you are asking "Can an airsoft gun load, chamber, and cycle a live firearm cartridge?", the answer is no. If you are asking "Does my state consider an airsoft replica a firearm?", the answer is "Maybe". Depending on where you live, airsoft replicas may be classified as firearms. The best place to start looking is to search for the definition of firearm in your state codes. If all else fails, you may be able to get suggestions for which sections of your local criminal codes cover airsoft replicas by contacting NON-EMERGENCY dispatch for your local law enforcement agency. If you are asking "Should I treat my airsoft replica like a firearm?", the answer is yes. All firearm safety rules should be followed with anything that launches a projectile, especially when it looks like a real gun.
NO.Why would the cops just give an airsoft gun to someone in jail?
YES You can be. Remember it fires a projectile that can penetrate skin. BB guns, unlike airsoft toys, do not have an orange or red tip and look like a firearm.
No, there is no background check for airsoft guns, however, having airsoft guns that might be confused for firearms is a terrible idea for felons or parolees.
You may have to ship it as though it were a firearm to be completely covered.
Kalashnikov does not make airsoft guns, he designed the firearm they are based off of. the 'k' in "AK47" is for Kalasnikov.
It can be done. A lot of airsoft guns have rails systems which are based on Weaver or MIL-STD-1913 (Picatinny) rails, and Weaver scope bases can be used on these rails, the same as they could be on a real firearm.
No, airsoft is illegal in Brunei Darussalam. They are considered as an offensive firearm. If you try bring your own, you could face jail time up to 5 years.
And airsoft company that makes videos and sells guns.
No, they are not. A firearm propels a projectile by means of an explosion (gunpowder). Airsoft guns may use an electric motor, a spring, or compressed gas, but they do not use an explosion to propel the BB.
No they are not regulated but should be handled just like any other firearm.
No. Airsoft is a type of sport like paintball so airsoft guns you can shoot people. but please shoot responsibly.
