airsoft guns for self defense??

Mine is made by a German Airsoft company under License from Beretta, and yeah it is a pretty good model of it.

I owned a live 92F when I was 20, I wanted to train shooting because I was trying to get into the Forces. Saved up for a year and went through all the Police checks to buy it.....then Dunblane happened three months later, and the gun laws came in.

airsoft guns are real fun to play with. another time i was at a friends house and while i was pretty intoxicated, i still had the accuracy to shoot out their neighbors backyard light while i was leaning out a second story window.

Well onli if i was sure that the oppisition wouldn't have a real gun. but i wouldn't use it to snipe off my attacker, i would proberbly shoot their hand to cause them pain then lay into them with the gun itself

In some places a replica firearm is seen by the law as a real fire arm.
I'm sure I could find case law but that's not really the point. Kudos to Mre8.. for thinking outside the box. IF all you had was a replica you could still bludgeon a guy with it.

Obviously not the best "weapon" for SD. Too many reasons NOT TO.
