Schmucks, indeed.
While I wouldn't be turning in my possessions just to avoid trouble, I'm an American of some Scots descent. Glad to be here not there.
Still, for the record there are some powerful air guns/air rifles out there, designed for varmint shooting and such. Very quiet, calibers up to .357 and 10 shots at 650+ fps, they can do some damage. [Crosman Benjamin Bulldog Bullpen PCP]
