The first BB guns were introduced in the 1500's for rich people. Through the years since then, BB guns have become widely used and loved. In this guide, I will provide proper cleaning tips, safety, and selection on BB and Pellet guns.

Step 1: Safety

1. Never shoot at anyone or anything.
2. Wear eye protection.
3. Make sure you know what is behind your target.
4. Don't shoot a gun that has not been inspected/ taken care of.

Step 2: Cleaning Tips

To clean a BB/Pellet gun, I use a cleaning agent/kit made exactly for BB guns. I then use an air duster (compressed air) that is not greasy to finish off.

Step 3: Selection

-Break Barrel
Powerful, higher price point, single shot, louder, harder to set, holds one bullet

-Pump
Single shot, holds multiple bb's, must pump a lot, weak, cheapest, best for beginners

-CO2
Powerful, expensive, requires co2, no pumping, can revovle around, holds more bullets, single shot, good for anyone except younger kids

Step 4: Comments

Please like, comment, and vote so i now what instructables wants to know about bb and pellet guns.

Thank you for giving a some information on air gun pellets! I've looking into the different kinds, but I didn't know there were "break barrel" pellets. I'll have to remember the different molds when I go to get some. http://www.hunters-supply.com/big-bore-air-gun-pellets-c-27.html
