Subject: RE: [RR] Skeet, Trap or shooting Clays-

 What is a trebuchet?
The launchers have not been declared illegal yet.
After all some use similar ones to shoot chocolate covered type of
marshmellows.

So far you are still allowed to throw a rock as long as you do not hurt
someone .

A potato gun ranks on the same level as the atom bomb and is of course
outlawed.
I understand that some of the US-states have outlawed them also.

I still itch to build one.
