what does the law in places with 'no guns' like Britain and Australia say about EM projectile accelerating devices? i know in Australia a solder got arrested for training in public with a crude prop rifle

what does the AFT say about such devices?

a magnet can't be illegal
>>
The ATF would likely classify it as a "destructive device."

Glad to see this generation of Scion owner taking their car out to a field to do /k/ shit.

In the UK a firearm is defined as "a lethal barrelled weapon capable of discharging a bullet, shot, missile or other projectile."

As long as your rail gun is under 12 ft/lbs it's all peachy.

>>28435628
So electrolasers aren't banned. Good to know.

>>28435628

Well hey, a coilgun doesn't have a barrel. It's acceleration track can be open-air.

Same can go for a railgun, I suppose, depending on design.

Australians are allowed to own guns you halfwit. Stop spreading lies. Just because you can't own every gun out there doesn't mean you can't own guns at all.

why shouldn't it be?

It's a lethal armament and involves fire
>>
>>28435851
This is true. People have got around this by making them fire from crossbow-esque rails.
>>28435844
That's true but it's an offensive weapon if used against another person.
>>28435796
That's only for air guns.
>>28435788
Yeah air guns are firearms if they have over 12 foot pounds of energy at the muzzle
>>28435767
Yeah they'd be section 1 firearms as long as you didn't load them with explosives.
>>
>>28435562
everything in the UK & Australia is illegal. basically you live in a hole and hide from the police all day, at night you forage for food.
