There is rifle shooting, shotgun shooting, and archery. None are required for an Eagle Scout but may be used as an elective. All must be completed on a certified range with a certified instructor. Almost always, this is at a BSA summer camp. None use bb or airsoft guns. In fact, I believe that airsoft is specifically forbidden at scouting events.

At the cub scout level, boys and girls are able to shoot bb guns. At this level, it is only at Council events with a certified range and a certified instructor. It is not required for advancement.

Don't get me wrong. This story is egregious, there is so much wrong with this story.
