I’ve got a BB pistol that from the side looks like the real deal. I only use it to fire at metal cover hanging near the garden to scare off mooching squirrels and deer. Th3 cover makes a good loud clang when hitź - got a couple of pellet rifles too that look like real firearms-
Where I live, hunting and protecting farms from wild animals are the norm, so people don’t freak out at the site of a firearm- but no way would I want to carry it into cities- and when transporting, if pulled over, make sure that you mention that although a bb gun or pellet gun is not a firearm, that you have them in the car first thing when speaking to the cop- don’t wanna get shot over a perfectly legal to own pellet gun
HuntErs in Florida who do pest control, use pellet rifles and pistols all the time, and cops are called out very often by folks who freak out at the sight of anything that looks like a gun. While it is a Hassel for the pest d
