Would a gun chambered in 6mm flobert even be considered a firearm

Yes it would.

Fun fact. I have a pistol chambered in flobert. For training dogs and horses to not be gun shy

>>30507134
Interesting to know. I started considering parlor pistols or rifles for discreet garage shooting since I can't make it to the range. Maybe I'll try to pick up a flobert rifle since no pistols yet.

Yes.

Do you even know what 6mm flobert is?

>>30507071
I don't know if it's because it's currently 4:40 AM or because "flobert" is an inherently funny word, but I just laughed my ass off at your post.

>>30508245
I believe it's pronounced flow-bare

Why did Floberts fall out of fashion?
They are pretty neat

Oh is it one of those primer only things? Figured it would have like half a groan or something.

no.

Because 22lr became the more succesful rimfire round and the French industry completely gave up on Flobert cartridges, even though it had great potential to grown just like .22 short evolved into.22lr. Flobert rounds are surprisingly accurate, just very short ranged.

Just get a .22lr gun and put a plate of steel behind your target, and you'll be able to shoot in your garage just fine. I've done it for years as a teen, wasn't even wearing any ear pro and no neigbors ever noticed.

>>30508398
Well, anything is accurate when it can only hit out to 10 feet.

>>30507071
Guy I work with uses them to hunt raccoons during the off season. They are .22CB's which are the same thing I think.

Enjoy your tinnitus, it'll sneak up on you any day.

Also one of the big issues with shooting indoors is lead inhalation, that'll creep up on you over time as well, there's a reason indoor ranges have powerful ventilation.

wasnt there some anon here that used it to put little dings in his neighbors car because his dog kept shitting on anon's lawn?

>>30508225
doesn't matter if it has powder or not
projectile propelled by a chemical reaction - gun

>>30508535
No, they aren't .22CB

>>30507071
Are those little guns even rifled?

>>30509430
actually black powder muzzle loaders and pinfires don't count

>>30509430
>projectile propelled by a chemical reaction - gun
No, the word you're looking for is firearm, like how a compressed air powered air gun is still a gun, but it's not a firearm.

>>30509870
correct on muzzle loaders (BP or smokeless doesn't matter)
pinfire doesn't count because ammo has to be readily available through normal commercial channels

>>30509871
correct
