I got shot in the neck by a 6mm bb going around 650fps. It just stung a bit and broke the skin.

No it was a plastic airsoft BB but I think even a copper one at 600 fps wouldn't do much other than sting like hell and bleed.

If all you want to do is target shoot with an air pistol, you can do this in your apartment hallway... just build a backstop with a large box and newspaper.

thats interesting, they have warnings on the air gun pistol's if used improperly it can cause death... These to me seemed completely different that the airsoft BB... however most of you on here are experts about it.
