The article isn't even a full sentence in when they clearly state their bias. An airgun is not a 'weapon'. It hasn't been considered that since the days of Napoleon.
Anybody who calls an airgun a weapon should forfeit their privilege to own one. Its a tool for a specific need ie culling rabbits near your rural house or perhaps just entertainment at an airgun club.

It would be a crap 'weapon'. Imagine trying to use one for home defense, you'd use your precious 5 seconds to react and run for safety by loading a pellet??? Only piss off the intruder? Get real 'Stuff' author, lose the fantasy that any type of gun is for home defense, least of all an airgun.

So that cop who was murdered with an airgun a few years ago, the airgun wasn't a weapon when it was being used to kill him?
