That's ridiculous. Yeah, it's an airgun, but it's approaching .45 ACP in power.

I'm not saying it should be used against anything that isn't activly trying to kill you, for real kill you not just send you back to respawn kill you.

I know. No knock on you; it's the wildest airgun I've seen.


And way more impractical than a 1911.

I'm surprised you don't need a background check and an FFL transfer for that thing.

It's been around for a while. They make a couple of other models too. One version is a lever action available in about 10 different calibers up to .60.

It's not unheard of. The Italians had a 10-shot airgun during WWII, if I remember correctly. Not standard issue, but they are out there.

Well, uh... Yes, that will happen.

Meh. I bought one for our realism team. FOF training is a lot more intense, but maintaining the platoon of lawyers I keep on retainer is becoming cost prohibitive.

Due to the fact that high powered air guns were both silent and deadly, they were feared by many, Nobility tired to keep these air guns out of the hands of commoners (the poor). Air guns even saw battle, a Austrian Army used a air rifle designed by Grandoni in 1779 that shot 20 rounds of .44 cal. bullets at speeds as high as 1,000 feet per second. They did battle against Napoleon's Army and even though the Austrian Army was out numbered and lost the battle, the Austrian Army armed with air guns demoralized Napoleon's Army, Napoleon's Army had a great number of casualties. Air guns were so feared by Napoleon's Army that any enemy soldier captured with a air rifle was executed as a assassin.
