I own a Crossman .22 caliber pellet rifle (pump action) and you are correct,
it's just as deadly as a real firearm.

I also own a Crossman Co2 bb pistol and it's pretty bad-ass too.

Sadly, both are old and the seals/gaskets are dried up so they don't hold
pressure anymore. they don't work. I like them both though so some day, I'll
take them to a gunsmith and get them restored into working order.
