Never thought i would hear of any one mention Bugwood on the internet, You are from lake Cumberland aint you.

Yes and you would have gone to jail and paid a bigger fine than the idiots Illegal to have a solid projectile (rifle) on the water unless cases and hunting season is in .

His shorty AR would be considered a pistol. You said you were carrying a pistol also.

It’s done! That doesn’t surprise me! A lot of people, with no common sense. If they would have gotten caught, they would have blamed it on the air soft gun. Congrats on getting in the money!

Not here its not, if your assaulted you have the right of self defense, they would not have said a word, they knew they were wrong, BTW the shorty is classified as a pistol, and we have concealed carry, no permit needed. I do not play games, to old to take chances!

If a kid shoots you with an airsoft and you return fire with a firearm, you are going to jail in 50 out of 50 states.

The guy who shot Skittles isn't in jail.

Anyone remember the incident at the MN Trappers Convention where the kids were buying high power air soft guns and knives from that idiot in the trailer? (might have been the FTA)
Then they were threatening other kids and shot every light bulb out on the grounds that wasn't overhead of an adult.

Every TA in attendance banned that clown from their events for life.

About 15 years ago. Fishing in a cove. We had 3 idiots driving golf balls at us. The reeds where high. We didn’t know what it was at first. Until one landed in the boat. I was able to see 3 grown men in there 30s Laughing. Wasn’t so funny when I fired up the boat and headed there way. They Ran into there cabin. I told them a thing or two. They understood I wasn’t happy. The thing is my 65 year old father was with us in the boat. Getting hit by a golf ball isn’t fun. People are just plain stupid

More I think about it, OP's incident sounds a lot like something similar that was in the regional news a while back. Wonder if this has become "a thing" among these little dolts?

I knew a kid that shot a tater cannon at some passing boats UNTIL his Dad found out about it. Needless to say the tater cannon was no longer a threat to anyone and the kid NOW understands the error of his ways.

If it would have happened 50 years ago and in Michigan, it likely woulda been me, except it woulda been a BB gun (weren't no airsoft back then), and you never woulda caught me neither.
Kids today don't think things through all the way.

My kid has one that they have battles with. Along the lines of paintball tourneys. At 40 yards it stings pretty good. About 60 yards you can tell something hit you, but it doesn't hurt.

He shot me once at about 20 yards. It hit me in the lower back with a sweatshirt and a light hunting coat on. It hurt like the dickens.
The first one he had you had to be within 10 yards for it to sting. At 30 yards you didn't even feel it. I use it to scare the starlings away from the bird feeder.

What do the air soft guns shoot?

Is it the same as a paintball gun?

It is a small plastic bb. Not sure of the caliber, maybe 22?
