GSG9 Posted June 15, 2006 Report Share Posted June 15, 2006 Now i'm not sure if this has already been posted, but while browsing around on ebay i came across this M16 that is powered by the same little red caps that cap guns use. It has little shells that hold a bb in one end and a cap in the other. THe magazine holds 8 shells and the bolt moves using a battery. It looks quite interesting. heres a video Link to post Share on other sites

Wege Posted June 17, 2006 Report Share Posted June 17, 2006 Question. Since the motive power of the BB is by 'cap' .. or in effect, gunpowder, would not the actual name of this then be a firearm? which then becomes: A- illegal to buy in countries without a firearms license B- not fit for 'for sale, wowzer! look what I found' discussions, as this forum is about airsoft?

(because of the whole propelant system). Link to post Share on other sites

The general concensus was that this is technically a firearm and that the people selling these will get in trouble for illegally distributing firearms, and people who buy these may have the ATF knocking at their doors to confiscate these "firearms" that were obtained without a liscence. So, you shouldn't buy these due to the legal complications that may ensue. Link to post Share on other sites

Lance Jackass Posted June 17, 2006 Report Share Posted June 17, 2006 The thing is, it's technically a firearm, but so obviously a children's toy. Link to post Share on other sites
