Air Guns
CO2 Replicas • BB & .177 • No FFL Required
CO2-powered replicas of the pistols and rifles American shooters actually carry — Glock 17, SIG M17, HK USP, Colt Single Action Army, and the SIG MPX — plus electric BB rifles and air gun optics. Air guns ship directly to your door (no FFL transfer required), propel BBs and .177 pellets at a fraction of ammunition cost, and let you train the same draw stroke and trigger press as your carry pistol in a backyard or garage range — the cheapest practical training tool in the modern shooting world.
Air Guns at Keep Shooting
Air guns occupy a useful niche in the modern American shooting catalog: they look, feel, and handle like the firearms they replicate — same grip angle, same trigger geometry, same sight picture — but ship directly to your door without an FFL transfer, fire BBs and .177 pellets at one to two cents per shot, and run on CO2 cartridges that are legal in jurisdictions where conventional firearms aren't. Keep Shooting stocks CO2 replicas of five popular service handgun and carbine designs plus an electric AEG full-auto BB rifle and the supporting air gun optics, with cross-references to the Umarex T4E 50-caliber training projectiles for shooters who run the less-lethal training-pistol platform.
CO2 Pistol Replicas
Four of our six air guns are CO2-powered replicas of real-world carry and service pistols. The Umarex Glock 17 Gen 3 CO2 Pistol is officially licensed by Glock and shares the exact grip frame, slide profile, and trigger pull of the real Gen 3 Glock 17 — we stock this for shooters who carry a Glock 17 / 19 / 22 / 26 daily and want a backyard-trainable replica with identical handling characteristics. The SIG Sauer M17 CO2 Pistol replicates the M17 / P320 service pistol adopted by the US Army in 2017, with the same modular grip system that lets you practice with the same frame size as your carry M17. The HK USP Air Pistol covers shooters who carry the polymer-framed Heckler & Koch USP service pistol family. For shooters with a single-action revolver background, the Colt Single Action Army .45 .177 Nickel Air Pistol is a CO2 replica of the iconic 1873 Peacemaker with the same loading-gate spurred-hammer manual of arms as the original cartridge SAA — useful for cowboy-action shooters and SAA enthusiasts who want a low-cost backyard training option.
Air Rifles
On the long-gun side we carry two distinct platforms. The SIG Sauer MPX Air Rifle is a CO2-powered .177 pellet replica of the SIG MPX submachine gun — rifled barrel for accuracy, semi-auto action driven by a rotary 30-pellet belt magazine, and the same AR-style controls as the centerfire MPX. For shooters who want pure recreational fun rather than training simulation, the DPMS SBR Full Auto BB Rifle is a CO2-powered AR-15-pattern carbine that cycles full-auto on BB ammunition — not a training analog for any centerfire rifle, but a high-fun-factor backyard plinker that puts a 1400-rounds-per-minute full-auto experience in your hands without the NFA paperwork or per-round costs of a registered transferable.
Air Gun Optics & Accessories
Air gun optics are typically dovetail-mount and built lighter than centerfire scopes — we stock the 4x30 Air Gun Rifle Scope for general air rifle use and the P4 Sniper Scope for shooters who want a higher-magnification option that still mounts on dovetail rails.
Umarex T4E & Less-Lethal Training Platforms
Adjacent to the air gun catalog, we stock the Umarex T4E 50-caliber less-lethal training-pistol projectiles — the T4E 50 Cal Rubber Ball for force-on-force training and the T4E 50 Cal Pepper Ball for less-lethal home defense applications. These feed the Umarex T4E HDP, HDR, and compressed-air launcher platforms, which sit between conventional air guns and the dedicated Byrna kinetic launchers in the modern less-lethal market. Cross-reference the less-lethal ammo category for the 12-gauge and Byrna kinetic equivalents.
Why an Air Gun
Air guns make sense for three distinct shooter profiles. Trainers use CO2 replicas of their carry pistol to practice draw stroke, sight alignment, and trigger press at home for pennies per shot — the licensed Umarex Glock 17 has the same grip frame as your real Gen 3 Glock 17, so muscle memory transfers directly. Recreational shooters get a backyard-friendly plinker (subject to local ordinances) that doesn't require range fees or expensive ammunition — BBs and .177 pellets cost roughly one to two cents per shot. Pest controllers use higher-FPS air rifles for backyard varmint dispatch in suburban areas where conventional firearms are impractical or prohibited. Air guns ship directly to consumers with no FFL transfer required — check your local and state ordinances before purchase, since some jurisdictions (notably New York City and a handful of California municipalities) regulate air guns more strictly than federal law does.
