Found nothing as clear with regards to American law. Seems to me judgement is at the whim of the ATF agent and as to whether they see the item as dangerous, designed to be dangerous, or of "suitable" recreational purpose.

Wow, you get it more than most Americans do....

Its not too foreign a concept to use the development of new technology that exists in a gray area to help 'define' the law.

Or just get rid of all firarm laws...

Ok, Im going there:

Part of me wants all paintball guns to be classified as guns, so that eventually these disgruntled children will grow up and help change the laws. Hey, its a dream...

Actually I thought that was a great answer. I think it is very fit as the spud exemption proves.

Edit: I once e-mailed the ATF about a firearm on one September, I didn't get a reply until June...

Its a reasonable answer... I would hate to be the test case but its a logical answer. Unfortunately the law is not always predictable, or logical, but at least it seems they did address the issue.

Can't argue with you there, I hope I am not the "example" either but mine will be here around Halloween.
