In short, a firearm involves gun powder. However, if you go hold up a bank, gas station, etc. with a realistic-looking BB gun (and nobody can tell the difference between it and a real firearm), it's not just robbery, but armed robbery (felony theft/robbery with sentence enhancement for using a weapon) under Wisconsin law! |
