shooting at a drone report

[AnzacJack]

It may be a Gell Co2 canister gun actually going by the stamp on the barrel which I think reads G 10

Edit found it (only a 177 but still highly illegal to go waving around in public, let alone pointing in the direction of anyone)
A repeater too, so it may have had rounds in while he was confronting the man with the drone

Come at me Bro...I got a lens!

I read the subject and presumed 'murica.
Does anyone know what type/model pistol is? looks like BB gun or s'thing to me

Well, two reports just today I saw of drones being attacked with AirSoft guns. Neither in "murica". We don't hold the exclusive on nutjobs with guns...yes..we are probably the highest, but nuts are everywhere and AirSoft's are not hard to get nor probably illegal in EU.

Wait until we get this remote ID and tom, ****, and harry can find out where you are at if they want to.

Lol.
But now looking at it closer, it doesnt even have a hammer mechanism, so maybe not even an air/gel gun at all

Neither does a Glock.

I knew someone would have to pipe in with that. but its clearly not a glock

I had one of those when I was a kid. Then they didn't even have a safety. Even without a safety I never shot my eye out

Just what everyone needs to overthrow a “presumed” tyrannical government.

Of course I’m joking. ! It’s too bad that this kinda stuff even has to show up on a site about flying drones ! Remote ID isn’t gonna help recreational flyers like myself, from this kinda thing either. My opinions.

Haters already have their BB guns loaded for when RID launches

oh my, i think its time to close this thread now,
it does not matter what type of firearm it was ,or whether or not it was lethal
and regardless of why the chap was brandishing the weapon in public ,and causing fear to others ,with his threats ,those actions are very severely frowned upon .
he is very lucky that he was not armed when the police arrived ,because in the heat of the moment, he could have been either tasered, shot by armed police ,with a none lethal round, or at the worst had his life ended with a lethal round.
