No, being that simple is not sufficient.
Because trowing a large rock out of a slingshot could produce more than 5.7 joules and be classified as a firearm...
In gaming therms, that could also mean any devices made to propel smokes grenades, like M203 or mortars.
People should make the effort to learn, remember and understand what 500fps AND 5.7j mean.
