Air-powered weapons use compressed air to propel projectiles, making them a popular choice for recreational shooting and training. These weapons include air rifles, air pistols, and paintball guns, which can be used for target practice, hunting small game, or competitive sports. Unlike traditional firearms that rely on gunpowder, air-powered weapons are generally quieter and produce less recoil. They can be powered by various methods, such as pneumatic systems or CO2 cartridges, allowing for a range of performance and efficiency. This makes them accessible for beginners and suitable for indoor use.
