Can BB guns be used as personal security / do they hurt?

It would indeed hurt.. but why not get some balls and buy a real gun? A 9 or 45 would be ideal.

I digress. I am a former warcraft warrior, and I've slain nefarian!

Make sure you have plenty of healing potions and a resurrect dead spell.

Callum's right ffs. Rangers were indeed the second team to do 9 in a row.

using a BB gun on someone is a guaranteed way to make them mad rather than say fair cop and leg it. anybody that's ever been shot by one knows the automatic reaction is to bray teh prick that's shooting you

Which hurts more? Being shot by a bb gun or being zapped by a moderately strong stun gun?

I figure some typed of range attack would be nice.

So if someone was approaching you and you busted out your real looking C02 powered BB gun.. do you think it could repel them If you unloaded on em?

Just curious.. Maybe Ill get a beating stick... or a katana.

I don't know where you live but first off, buy a real gun and learn how to shoot and properly care for it.

Shooting someone with a BB gun will make them angry and they will probably rush you. BB guns shot just feel like bee stings and nothing more.

Also have a plan if you are going to have a gun. Are you trying to protect your life or your possessions or both?

The fact you even wanted use a BB gun makes you sound a little clueless.

If you don't want a gun (a real gun) then a stick or knife is good. A katana would be dumb 1) if you don't know how to use it and 2) are in really close quarters. A stun gun doesn't seem bad either but I never owned one (I have used one though).

Remember you are trying protect yourself from death, not be Rambo or a samurai.:dry:
