aren't six bullets something to consider?
The power of the SwissMiniGun Cal. 2.34m/m ammunition is just less than 1 joule ... the power of most airguns or BB guns, which are in many countries freely on sale, can exceed over 10 times the power of our ammunition.

this gun is not lethal unless inserted in the eye or ear canal..... it will break the skin but is unable to travel deep enough to reach vital organs..... unless its a young child.
For comparison, an average air rifle has about the same power. high end models even more so.
I used to have an air rifle that could shoot a pellet through 2" of wood... or old truck body panels
Quote from hughb:
I was shot in the ankle with an air rifle when I was a child, through a thick leather boot. It hit a nerve so hard that it caused my arms to involuntarily lift in the air and I fell foward to the ground, (i was shot from behind by a friend goofing off). I had to limp home and I still have a good sized scar down there to this day.

Yeah, depending on the type, they can do some damage. I used to have a Crossman pump-up BB gun with a 6x scope, when I was a kid. Pumping past the max of 10 pumps could put a BB thru 1/2" plywood.
