Can I sell an air rifle through this forum?

[tx200]

Hello,

I have been a member for a few months and would like to sell an Weihrauch air rifle. Can I sell it through this forum?

Thanks

you can sell it in the equipment exchange, probably best under exchange of other stuff..

I'm not so sure, EE rules say:

No for sale (FS)/or want to buy (WTB) ads of airsoft guns. Please conduct your airsoft guns related trading on the Airsoft Canada. This policy is to discourage the selling and buying airsoft item to minors. All airsoft guns related trading post will be removed without warning.

Though I do not know the difference between airsoft and BB and all these guns, I have a CO2 pistol I want to seell and I'm not sure I can sell it here

A Weihrauch air rifle is NOT airsoft though.

I could be mistaken but I thought they were the type that fire the lead pellets, opposed to the plastic BB's. Anyone know?

Air Rifles are not airsoft guns. They can be sold in the EE without issue.

what is the difference?

 

[canucklehead]

Airsoft is a game, where people (mostly under-aged pimply faced armchair commandos) shoot plastic pellets at eachother with 'realistic' looking firearms.

Air rifles are legitimate tools that shooters use for practice, or to harvest small game.

I have no love for airsoft.

I have pellet guns (air rifles) and air soft, among other firearms. they are completely different. airsoft is a plastic gun shooting plastic ammo, kind of like a knock-off paintball, I like it for mowing down cans with full auto. airrifles are real rifles designed to target shoot or hunt, usually very small game like pigeons. Air rifles over 500fps are considere firearms in canada.

i know that, just wondering the difference between air gun and airsoft

I have one of these:



bought it to shoot a pistol at home when I can't go to the range, but there has never actually been a moment I couldnt go to the range in quite a long time
could I sell it on the EE?

The difference between an airsoft and a Weihrauch air gun, other than the obvious of one being plastic, I'd say about $300+ difference.

You can. Because air soft is not an Air gun. As mentioned before, airsoft fires PLASTIC BB's, while airguns fire LEAD pellets or copper BB's. Your umarex desert eagle is an airgun.
