IMO, Vanya explained it well in two different posts:
"If "firearm" means "powder-burner" to the owner and mods, here, that's sorta the end of the story..."
It does.
"I suspect that having a forum "explode with activity.... from young shooters" [of non-firearms] may not be a priority for the owner of The Firing Line."
As both John and Al implied, the "fire" in firearms is actually burning powder, not compressed air or CO2. We welcome air gun discussions in the various forums, but we don't need nor want a specific forum for them.
