A friend of my brothers says that you don't need a hunting license to hunt with an Air rifle like a Gamo Air Rifle. I say you do. What do you guys say?
As far as I know, you still do, although I wouldn't be caught dead hunting with a gamo. That things for whackin gophers and squirrels in the backyard. Pretty sure a warden would write you up for carryin around an air rifle anytime but during modern rifle season, and if you're gonna be goin out then, do it right and take a rifle.
I agree, somewhat, but my argument wasn't weather it can kill an animal or not, or what game to shoot with it. I only wanted to know if was legal to hunt with it and not needing a hunting license. Some air rifles are not toys. I have air rifles and Im not talking about the ones you get a Walmart for like 40 bucks. I have a Gamo Varmint Hunter and a Hunter extreme and they are pretty powerful. I've seen videos on Youtube of a guy taking down a Hog, one shot. Here it is.

Of course you do, unless exempt. If you're hunting anything, you must comply with all applicable hunting regs, including method of take, which may or may not allow airguns, depending upon species.
