Some idiots i know decided to shoot some people with an air rifle. They did it from inside a house and the police dont know the location of the weapon. What sorta of charges would they be facing? What sort of punishment shoudl they be expecting?>

    ABH or battery I think? It will depend on how serious the injuries are.

    You mean 5 years (ABH) or 6 months (battery) in prison (max.) doesn't sound too bad?

    am i right or wrong in thinking that there could be another charge of using a non licenced weapon in an incorrect capacity or something like that?

    ABH / GBH would most likely be what they'd be charged with.
    and for shooting someone (with an air rifle) :yes: there should be a seperate charge imo

    It depends on the injuries, but if I was a prosecutor I'd be going for at least ABH and firearms offences.

    If they get caught I think they should be expecting porridge.
