I don’t know anything about airsoft but looks like the ammo is plastic BBs not whatever that is. I assume this is air propelled?
Discussion
As far as we know, a little puff of air fires the foam nerf dart out, it doesn't have plastic bb's
it will be pretty epic if australia govt is now calling literal nerf guns firearms
neither airsoft nor painballs use FIRE
nerf is an AIR based projectile system, so are they going to say now that it doesn't matter that it is sold with foam ones because "woo you could put spikes on the end of them or something" you dirty irresponsible weapon lover
I almost, almost, want to get charged, so I can stand in front of a judge holding a fucking nerf gun while explaining what an airsoft gun is.
australian summary jurisdiction judges are assholes, they are basically barely more than the buddy of the prosecution lawyer, whose job is to get a conviction no matter what... i mean, what are tehy, magistrate courts
and the lawyers are all buddy buddy with each other, i don't wish that on you, i went through my process fighting licensure, drew on old laws from british law that the constitution specifically grandfathers in, the magistrate spent almost an hour reading irrelevant case law, not addressing the fact that old british laws specifically prohibited government monopolies
these weapons laws are based on the idea that simply having a "weapon" is a crime and thus everything else works backwards to reinforce that, it's prejudicial, so, i hope you don't get any problem with it... if they have already seized it, you just need to maybe get a lawyer to consult on how you are going to avoid as much as possible being prosecuted over it because it's ridiculous
and just a fresh reminder why i don't live in that shithole country
