Hunting with BB guns is a popular pastime across the country. However, it’s important to note that, while far less dangerous than other guns, there are still laws in place that can get you in trouble if you’re not being smart about what you’re doing.

For example, earlier this year a couple of students hunting with BB guns caused Maryland’s Stevenson University to go into lockdown. According to Reuters, the two students were hunting in a nearby wooded area. People saw them and soon, there were reports of a gunman on campus. Students and staff had to shelter themselves in place, beginning at 2:30 pm. By the time police and security officials had gotten to the bottom of the situation, it was 6:45 pm. After students were released, all campus activities for the evening were canceled. It’s important to note that a police officer was quoted in the story, saying there was no evidence a crime had been committed.

This misunderstanding highlights both law and judgment issues. Perhaps it wasn’t wise of the students to hunt so close to campus. However, Maryland is one of a number of states that doesn’t have laws pertaining to BB guns, according to Pellet Gun Zone. Other states that don’t have these laws are Oregon, Idaho, Nevada, Montana, Wyoming, Utah, Arizona, New Mexico, South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas, Iowa, Arkansas, Louisiana, Indiana, Ohio, Kentucky, Tennessee, Alabama, Kentucky, Vermont, West Virginia, Hawaii, and Alaska. On the other hand, states that have BB gun laws include Washington, California, Colorado, North Dakota, Minnesota, Missouri, Wisconsin, Illinois, Michigan, Mississippi, Maine, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, New York, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, and Florida. On a federal level, there are no laws dealing with BB guns.
