What is an air gun?

An air gun is a firearm that uses compressed air or gas to propel projectiles, such as pellets or BBs. Air guns can be powered by various means, including spring-piston, gas piston, CO2, and pneumatic. They are often used for recreational shooting, hunting, and pest control. Air guns come in various sizes and styles, from small pistol-like guns to large rifles. They are typically less powerful than traditional firearms and are often used for target shooting or small game hunting. In some countries, air guns are subject to legal regulation, and users must have a license to own or operate them.
