Had a random idea last night but I know nothing about guns and thought I would throw this idea out…
Here in the UK you can buy Pellet guns from ‘Pound shops’ and I was wondering how alike they are to people with an untrained eye. Only because my husband thought that you could buy an store one for an emergency like a robbery or end of the world scenario. The average person in the UK I bet would not know much about guns and would feel threatened by what they think was a real gun with bullets. You can see where this is going now. If you were threatened you would pull the pellet gun and scare off people hopefully saving what family and/or resources that you have. Needless to say if you pulled the trigger it would show your hand.
My main question then is how physically similar are pellet guns (or air rifles) to real bullet guns. And how much damage do they do on human bodies?

And yes, I really should be studying right now…
