To their credit this thing is being marketed as a shipborne defense weapon. Firearms are prohibited items on a lot of carrier ships and none to welcome in a lot of ports around the world aboard personal yachts. This is a workaround solution for them.

It can't even be considered a work around for one reason.Every country has their own laws on what defines a firearm in that country. Some airguns are classed as firearms by the amount of muzzle energy they produce in one country, in others by how fast they launch the projectile, & in others anything above a certain caliber is considered a firearm.
I do believe that at sea in international waters a ship is an independent entity and as such can have a lot of latitude in how they handle pirates. Any cargo freighter has plenty of hiding places to stash defensive hardware and as stated ok to leave the fish a few extra calories
Hi any more information on this?Just wondering Dave
