Any laws on full auto BB guns like the DrozD Blackbird?

airguns are not "firearms"

Nope, but you *Probably* still cannot discharge one in SF, especially to kill a precious rat.

Yeah, if you killed all the rats who would pass laws?

[Canute]

I would put that in the category of "entertainment purposes only". Why not a single shot, if you could get away with it?

Nice. Blow up an aerosol can in a pond. Nothing environmentally irresponsible there.

So, yeah, the city will have a bit of a problem with your buddy using a full-auto BB gun.

Looks pretty neat, I like how it hooks up to a larger air cannister for more shots. Better than using the smaller 12 gram CO2 powerlets.

Yep the drozd is fun little toy. Have a couple modded out, double the factory FPS so it does some nice damage :)

That says public place.

Discharging your "projectile weapon" will be legal indoors or your yard.

[cdtx2001]

Keep it in your back yard or house and you're good to go.

I like how even a wrist rocket is mentioned. What would Dennis the Menace do?

SF has a more liberal law than LA, Irwindale, etc., and many other cities where the simple firing of even an airsoft gun is a misdemeanor no matter if you do it in your own backyard.

[motorhead]

drozd is big fun. cut beer cans in half. i need to upgrade though, you only get 2 xmags out of a co2 cartridge. loud too. always gets attention.

I think it's funny that SF has a (small) archery area in Golden Gate Park. It's a shame the dirty hippies don't wander around there from the stoner hill.
