A direct relative of the gun maker for Lewis and Clark lives and builds air rifles in Bolivar, Missouri.

The FR troll ‘the Scotsman’ tried to tell us guns were not banned in the UK, yet, they can’t even have BB guns.

Some pansy neighbor called the police who stopped by for a brief visit.

Such pansy neighbors need to be "encouraged" to move elsewhere. When the SHTF they'll be the informers.

...second World War pistols and crossbows... I did not know they used crossbows in the Second World War.

Theae “Airguns” are actually awesome. Some of the more expensive ones are capable of being used for hunting.

Air rifles are limited to 12 ft. lbs. of muzzle energy in the U.K. Anything more powerful than that requires the usual firearm purchase process and licensing. In comparison, a .22 Short standard velocity cartridge packs around 70 ft. lbs. Lots of the better air rifles are detuned for the U.K. market.

Very sad - I’m sure that there are many, many gems in the pile, which I would love to have, that are just going to be destroyed. Such a waste.

Must be a joy to have a nosy PIA neighbor like that!

BB guns and crossbows?

My red-blooded American sons are better armed than that since age 12.

Maybe it was a Scottish cajone trade in. They would definitely benefit from the brexit, and get their balls back.

It wouldn't be pleasant, but at least no Muslims got offended, and that's the reason why the UK government exists.
Don't offend, or else...

Cowardly self deluded fools. Maybe we can give them 0bama. They’d like that since apparently they think the same way as he does about guns, and make no mistake this is exactly what the Democrats and other anti-gunners want for the USA.

My two teenage boys and their friends were using airsoft guns in our backyard the other day.

Yesterday I found yet another airsoft pellet in my back yard. It was probably from my youngest son's 13th birthday party "war games" 15 years ago. I guess they are not bio-degradable...

That’s quite a haul, I must say.

It’s comforting to all know those scary air guns are off the streets where the terrorists can’t use them. /S

I think they need a license for everything.
