[QUOTE="MacFromOK, post: 3542751, member: 40864"] After some deep thought (ha!)... - If it DOES shoot BBs and DOES NOT shoot pellets, it's a BB gun. - If the barrel is NOT rifled, technically it CANNOT be a rifle by definition. - .177 calibers that shoot both BBs and pellets were always promoted as pellet guns or air rifles (as were .22 caliber pellet guns) when I was a kid. That system still works for me. - .177 caliber darts (do they even make .22 darts?) are irrelevant, unless you have a gun that ONLY shoots these (never heard of one, but I'm sure someone is already Googling it). Just my 2¢ ... :drunk2: [/QUOTE]
