FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT AIR PISTOLS
Yes. All of the air pistols for sale at Solware are fully compliant with UK law, which sets a maximum power limit of 6 ft-lb for air pistols. Anything over this is classed as a prohibited weapon and cannot be sold without special authority. Our range is carefully selected to meet legal requirements, giving customers peace of mind when buying. Whether you’re interested in a CO₂-powered pistol, a spring pistol, or a replica-style model, we only supply safe, legal, and reliable products. Every purchase comes with expert advice to ensure you understand both the product and the law before you buy.
The right calibre depends on what you want to achieve. A .177 calibre air pistol is excellent for target practice because it has a flatter trajectory and is more precise at range. A .22 calibre air pistol, on the other hand, delivers more impact and is better suited to pest control or shooters who prefer heavier pellets. At Solware, our team can help you compare options, explain the advantages of each calibre, and recommend the best pistol for your shooting style. With a wide choice of models and accessories, you’ll find the right air pistol setup for your needs.
In most cases, yes. In England and Wales, you can legally buy and own an air pistol if you are over 18 years of age and the pistol does not exceed 6 ft-lb in power. You don’t need a firearms licence for standard air pistols sold by Solware. However, it’s important to know that the laws in Scotland are different, where air weapon certificates are required. We always encourage responsible ownership, safe storage, and awareness of local rules. If you’re unsure, our team is here to explain the requirements and help you buy with confidence.
Both have their benefits. CO₂-powered air pistols are popular because they are easy to use, offer smoother shooting, and can fire multiple shots quickly. They are great for casual shooting and target practice. Spring-powered pistols are single-shot and don’t require cartridges, making them highly reliable and low-maintenance over time. The best choice depends on whether you want convenience and speed or simplicity and durability. At Solware, we stock both options and can guide you to the right one based on your shooting goals and budget.
You can order air pistols online from Solware, but UK law requires that the final handover must be done face-to-face.
