Show off your predator rifles

     Forgot to mention, that there are also bigbore air rifles in .45 that put out ballistics that match the original .45Colt loading (maybe a bit more), and are capable of effectively using slugs weighing 500+grains.

     This one is "state of the art".

Good info, thanks.

Are those high powered air guns regulated under federal or state laws?    How much noise do they make?

Like black powder guns, you can order them thru the mail, and they don't require federal registration.  The ammo isn't "loaded ammuntion", making it nice to be able to order ready-to-shoot ammo thru the mail without any sort of hassle.

As to state laws, there are a select few super-liberal states (New York, Illinois, etc) that have their own local regulations so that is something everyone should look into for themselves.

They are not silent by any stretch.  They sound a bit like a shotgun, without the sonic "crack" of the sound barrier breaking.

     These bigbore airguns are going to grow in popularity real fast, so you all may be seeing someone shooting them in your area sometime soon.
