A pellet gun, also known as an air gun or BB gun, shoots a projectile by means of compressed air. States differ in how they regulate pellet guns. A few states and municipalities regulate them the same as all firearms; other states lump them into the "dangerous weapons" category along with other weapons such as long knives and police batons. Massachusetts does neither. The only restriction on the possession of pellet guns in Massachusetts is age-related. Minors are not allowed to buy or sell pellet guns and cannot use them unless they are under the direct supervision of a parent, guardian or other responsible adult.

The law, often referred to as the felon-in-possession statute, makes it illegal for someone "who has been convicted in any court of a crime punishable by imprisonment for a term exceeding one year" to possess a firearm. Because it imposes mandatory sentences on the basis of a record of previous convictions, prosecutors commonly add a felon-in-possession charge when seeking an indictment for other offenses. April 26 - The Supreme Court on Tuesday curbed the reach of a federal law that prohibits convicted felons from possessing guns, ruling 5 to 3 that the law does not apply to those who were convicted by courts in foreign countries. The majority arrived at that conclusion by interpreting the statute's reference to a conviction in "any court" to mean "any court in the United States." Justice Stephen G. Breyer's majority opinion said that in the absence of any indication that Congress even considered the issue when it enacted the law in 1968, the court should apply a legal presumption that "Congress ordinarily intends its statutes to have domestic, not extraterritorial, application."
