Specialty Definition: BB gun

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)

A BB gun is a pneumatic gun mostly powered by air or a spring. Most BB guns are shaped like normal guns but can look like toys. Some may have cartridges and some are muzzleloaders. They use little pellets called BB's (plastic or copper). One brand of these pellets is Copperhead. A pellet does more damage than a BB, because the pellet has a pointy tip, or a flat front, whereas a BB is round.
