Shoot lead cannon balls, using the force of compressed air.

Nah, air cannons actually do fire pockets of compressed air.

You'd need a hell of a lot of very highly compressed air released stupidly fast to move a cannonball, never mind fire it anywhere.

What about compressed water? Although the cannon would get pretty damn heavy.
I say night I'm living in the forest of my dream,
I know the night is not as it would seem,
I must believe in something,
So I'll make myself believe it,
That this night will never go.

It's almost impossible to compress a liquid. It's a scientific principle there.

...What was the topic about again?

You're thinking about solids there.

No, she's right. Liquids are impossible to compress, whereas some solids can be compressed. You can still pressurize them, but they don't get any smaller.

Apparently.

Well, airguns are available without a gun license (when under a certain power) from your average gun shop in the UK. Bows are available from sports shops.

You only need gun licenses for lethal weapons... Airguns can be lethal?

You can kill with an airgun that's legal without a gun license with the right ammunition and the right aim, never mind a more powerful one.

No, really, Post. You can kill with unlicensed airguns.
