           In certain areas on MDC ground there are restrictions. Times where firearms are not to be used. There is no smoke, powder or fire with my air rifles but there are restricted for use.

If you think about it from the, say, deer's perspective, that firearm is most definitely a weapon🤪

Strangely, when I'm hunting, the deer tend to experience a firearm as a very loud but completely harmless object, except to the brush on either side of them.

I don't believe that deer think, so they could not perceive anything as a weapon. They might instinctively recognize the person carrying the firearm as  a potential danger, but I've had deer track me through the woods and stare at me when they caught up, and I've "tolled" them from about a 1/4 mile by periodic waving of a hat. If deer recognized danger at all they wouldn't charge at automobiles.
