What is New England Airgun in Hudson MA? New England Airgun is an Indoor "Lead-Free" "Environmentally Friendly" Air Gun target-shooting-range and Pro Shop. We shoot at "targets only" and not at each other as in Paintball or Airsoft. We concentrate on Marksmanship skills through game targets and NRA / ISSF Competition targets, and hopefully some day precision electronic targets like you would see in the Olympics. Our range can handle .177 .22 and .25 calibers of lead-free ammunition. (this includes plastic bb's used in airsoft and metal bb's common in bb-guns.) Lead-Free, Alcohol-Free (no-Alcohol not free-Alcohol) and we still have lots of fun! We have a full ProShop where you can touch and feel the products and even rent and use them before you make the decision to purchase.

Get your High Pressure Air Tanks Here
We provide them at full pressure "4500 psi" and fill them when they're empty.
New England Airgun Hudson MA
|
High Pressure air and Nitrogen are virtually the same. The air we breath is mostly Nitrogen. Commercially the nitrogen comes to use cleaner and drier than compressing air on-site. Nitrogen is more stable under temperature changes and will work better under extreme heat and cold.
We also fill the full sized scuba and scba tanks to 3000-4500 psi.
If fill time is over 60 min plus cooling plus top off (it is best to leave the large tanks overnight). Refills are $12 for scuba or scba tanks (tanks over 90 cubic inch). time required for a top-off refill is about 15-30min |
We are now filling and refiling
HPA 4500psi and CO2 tanks. New England Airgun is your local Ninja air products Dealer! Quality American made products and Services. We call these pony tanks, they are very small and hold lots of refills for in the field use. Unregulated with a slow fill valve so you have control over fill speed and shut-off. Regulated to 3000 or 2000 psi do you don't over-pressure your air pistol or air rifle. Regulated to 800 psi for airsoft or paintball. The UL Regulator ships at 800psi and comes with the ability to adjust your output pressure from 500psi, 650psi, or 800psi. First fill is on us, when you purchase one of our tanks. Tanks measured in cubic feet (over football size), scuba or scba size:
Tanks 90 cubic inch or under:

What is an "Adult Airgun"?Well Ralphie, it's not the Red Ryder bb-gun you got for Christmas. The Red Ryder (Manufactured by Daisy) is a dependable lever action, single shot, spring powered air rifle that shoots bb's at a velocity of 350 fps (feet per second).
Adult airguns can be powered by many sources (Compressed Air, Spring, Nitro Piston, CO2). Some are capable of shooting speeds above the speed of sound (1100 fps at sea level). They are also very accurate, precision pieces of equipment that shoot pellets and have prices that can get into thousands of dollars depending on the quality and options. Many airguns are replicas of popular firearms models, Some are just futuristic pieces of art and ingenuity. |

What is an Airgun BB?
The BB is a steel ball with a copper or nickel protective plating.
There are all grades of bb's. Some are precision manufactured and others have surface imperfections that decrease accuracy. While some bb's fly straight to the target, others act like a baseball pitcher's curve-ball. Depending on the type of shooting practice you're doing, BB's are good enough and very affordable.
I personally like to practice with a bb pistol before shooting competition airgun or firearm. The spring force of the air pistol is a good workout tool to increase strength and wrist control. |
What is an Airgun Pellet?
The Airgun Pellet is shaped like a badminton birdie or shuttlecock. This aerodynamic shape combined with the rifled barrel of the airgun helps the pellet fly straight and accurate. Rifling spins the pellet much like a quarterback spins the football to make it fly straight without wobbling.
Pellets are now being made in Tin and Plastic/Metal combinations to protect people, animals, and the environment from adverse effects of traditional Lead pellets, and the possibility of Lead poisoning. As manufacturing techniques improve, so does the accuracy of the Lead-Free Alloy Pellets. Initial production results were not impressive, but today's alloy pellets fly with impressive accuracy. |
Maximum fill pressure on your Airgun
What does this really mean ?????
What it doesn't mean is "have to," "must do," "need to".
What if you leave your airgun in the sun? Heat expands, so if you are already at max pressure, you will now over-pressure your airgun, possibly blow your safety disk, and be in the repair shop instead of shooting for the day.
Many experienced airgun users have defined, through experience, that their airguns actually have the best accuracy when "not filled" to the manufacturers "Max Pressure". Have you heard of the term "Max Recommended Pressure" or "Max Operating Pressure"? I do wish the manufactures would use the term "Max Recommended Operating Pressure" and "Min Recommended Operating Pressure".
"But my gauge goes up to 6000psi, that's where I should fill it to, right????" No.... Wrong... Incorrect. You should only fill to the "Max Recommended Operating Pressure" listed in your users manual, many times this is printed on the side of the airgun for quick reference.
But what if I can't get up to that pressure.... the gun is junk and won't work, right? Wrong again. Any pressure over the "Minimum Recommended Operating Pressure" will give you powerful and accurate shots from your airgun. There are many variables that affect accuracy, so that's another topic.

The advantages to target shooting with airguns in a Lead-Free environment
|
As in many sports, muscle memory is a large part of performance. Baseball Pitchers don't have sights or scopes to throw the ball to the catcher, they use muscle memory from years of practice. A quarterback in football relies on the same muscle memory for precision passes as long range touchdown passes. It's not luck, it's practiced muscle memory.
The same muscle memory is needed in the shooting sports and personal protection. What better way is there to practice the fundamentals of getting your shots on target than with a gun without kickback or recoil. Get your muscle memory on target before adding the recoil of a firearm and you will be on-track to being a better firearms shooter! |

^^ Q: Is a license required to possess an air gun (i.e. bb or pellet guns, so-called air rifles or air pistols, paint ball guns) or ammunition therefore (i.e. bb's, pellets, CO2 cartridges, paint balls)? A: An FID Card is not required to possess an air gun in Massachusetts. Air guns are regulated by M.G.L. c. 269, §12B which limits their use by minors who are not accompanied by an adult, holding a sporting or hunting license, or holding a permit from the chief of police. Massachusetts law also prohibits anyone from discharging air rifles from across streets, alleys, public ways or railroads or railway right of ways. It should also be noted that an FID Card or an LTC are not required to purchase an air gun or ammunition. As such, the state FA10 form should not be used to record the sale of such air guns. "Air Guns are for target practice Only". They use lead/metal pellets or bb's and shouldn't be confused with Air Soft Guns that use plastic pellets that are designed to be used similar to Paintball Guns. Remember: All guns are "real guns" and every gun must be treated "at all times" as loaded and ready to fire. Color and physical features don't make any gun more dangerous than another - only the person behind the gun can assure it's use is safe or not. The Responsibility is Yours! Guns / Gun-use Defined: Finger pointed as a gun is a gesture. (combat simulation - no protection). Stick pointed as a gun is a gesture. (combat simulation - no protection). Cap-gun is a gesture with noise. (combat simulation - no protection). Squirt-gun is person to person (combat simulation - no protection). Foam Dart Gun is person to person (combat simulation - eye protection). Paintball is person to person (combat simulation with proper protection). Airsoft is person to person (combat simulation with proper protection). Airguns (BB and Pellet) are for Target practice - Hunting. Firearms are for Protection - Hunting - Target practice. |

Frequently asked Question:
Airguns for personal protection - air pistol or air rifle
An opinion and not any kind of legal advice:
Any kind of gun, mace, pepper gel, pepper spray, pepper powder, or other weapons have different restrictions when you pass from town to town, city to city, state to state, country to country. It is up to the person who wishes to protect themselves with any kind of lethal or non-lethal weapon, to know the laws where they are traveling from and to. Remember, you're not protecting your "stuff", you're protecting yourself.
If you are looking towards a gun (lethal weapon) so you can stay at a distance to protect yourself... most laws figure if you're that far away, you aren’t protecting yourself and your first line of defense is to run away.
The first step in any person protection is being able to keep the other person away from the weapon and give yourself time to properly prepare it for use while under attack. Martial arts or similar training. Once a weapon is in the battle it becomes available to all in the battle.
If you think you need to protect yourself with a weapon, maybe it's time to change what your doing or move away from the danger you think you need to be protected from. If you can't, then it's time to find an attorney and get professional legal advice so you can prepare for all outcomes.
Q: Would an airgun be effective in fending off an attacker?
A: Depends... even criminals hit with a .45 cal firearm with one shot aren't immediately down and out. Why do the police take many shots when fending off and disarming a criminal with a weapon? Could be that they might miss and need follow up shots to make sure one hit it's mark? or could it be that it's not all that easy to stop a person determined to do harm with a weapon?
Any kind of weapon inflicts pain in an attempt to disarm and can even cause death with a single hit if it's in the right spot.
Different people can tolerate different levels of pain. Some can't handle a needle from the doctor and some continue to play sports with broken bones.
We hope this didn't answer all your questions but gave you more to think about before you contact a legal professional to get an answer that is good for your situation.
At New England Airgun we are focused on the personal enjoyment of marksmanship, competition, and target shooting. We do have customers that enjoy hunting with airguns and it's up to them to follow all the hunting and gun laws for the town and state they are in. For Legal Advice on Personal protection find yourself a good Attorney.
