Double Night Spy, the California arrest was a felony charge for having the BB gun in his posession. I only stated those examples of obscure laws because Nevada law states you can only use HP ammo for self defense, which is the basis of my post. I understand that is not a federal law, but states are allowed to make and mandate their own laws even if they are as rediculous as no loaded guns within 1000ft of a building in Bouler City, Nevada, no human silhouettes or black targets in Ne Jersey or New York, and felony charge of being in posession of a BB gun in California, which is why I am informing everyone that according to my CCW course instructor (who happens to work at this gun store that I purchased my +P+ HP ammo from) Nevada law will only allw the use of hollow point ammo for self defense use.
It is nice to be helpful, but you should try to verify some of the stuff you are passing on. I have now spoken with two folks in NV with permits and they have never heard of the hollowpoint only law. I still can't find any laws again silhouettes or black targets as claimed either. I also can't find anything on felony possession of BB guns in California per se.

SB1828 noted being a misdemeanor for open display in a public place for an imitation firearm including a BB gun and CPC 417.4 makes it a misdemeanor to point a BB gun at another person.

Your instructor seems to have passed on a lot of bizarre information that isn't factual.
