With a uncertain future for guns, here is another option for home defence.

Airguns, To be more specific not the wallmart type, i am talking about PCP guns that use up to 45000PSI and sometimes more to fire a .177-87cal hunk of lead.

Now most high power PCP airguns are bolt action and we all know that bolt action isn't a good option for home defence. But Airguns are changing, they are getting more serous.

Check out the Hatsan Blitz! Its a Semi-Auto AND FULLY AUTOMATIC airgun that comes in .22 cal up to .30 cal!


If thats not enough you can get some amazing ammo for airguns these days not just normal lead pellets, check out these

I personally love Airguns and 100% plan on buying a Full Auto. Right now my best airgun is my Hatsan BT65 a bolt action in .25 cal i use these H&N Hornets and it punches holes in a 50cal steel drum. At 100 yards i can hit a dime 9 time out of 10. Its get roughly 65FT. LBS now imagine that in Full Auto, 1,000 rounds per minute!

Take note that airguns use air cyilinders to hold air, they can hold air forever (but you should have the Hydro'd every few years) so it can be on the ready. PCP air pumps are not thousends of $$$$ anymore you can pick up a Yong Heng air pump that does 4500psi for $250 on Aliexpress, eBay and more sites.

I for one think that in the future if new stricter gun laws are put in place, they will go after airguns next, so get yours before you can't. It probably wont be long before Full Auto airguns are banned or requre some dumb stamp or license.

I've written about this before but my cousin has a high end airgun. The thing is a tank and wouldn't want to be on the receiving end of it.

I can see where that would be fun and possibly practical but $1000 is a bit much.

Just curious how anyone thinks these won’t be attacked if all guns are banned. For god sakes a wrist rocket is already banned and air guns are already regulated.

Laws for Purchase of Air Pistols in New York State

New York State has some of the most restrictive gun laws in the United States. In certain municipalities in New York State, these laws extend themselves to the purchase and possession of air pistols, which are not firearms, but non-lethal guns where a projectile is propelled by compressed air.

At that point, I think I'd be saving / using my money on lawyers.

Look at the laws in England. Airguns there are have to be limited in their energy. What you see there will eventually happen here.

They will 100% be banned/Regulated after firearms are. Thats why i recommend getting one now. The Full Auto ones will be the first to go sadly.

Same in Canada as well. They are impotent up there.

Wait until somebody is killed by one, then that will be that.

When guns are banned for home defense, I'm moving to claymores.

Once you cross that line, might as well go all the way.

Once you cross that line, you've got no legs anymore. Or worse.

Bought a full auto blank gun in the Barerra model. But this is pretty awesome. Ships to home? Or weird taxes?

I'm not worried, As I put up "No Violence Zone" signs around my house.
I'll shoot you if you break the rules.
I've had a tuned 9mm korean PCP air rifle for years and that's what I use to take care of the unruly critters that lurk around my neighborhood.
