Looks like some really tried to "dress up" a cheap Princess Auto break barrel:

They say it was a .22 cal, but looks like a .177, to me. Unless they swapped out the barrel.

Every shot is a long range shot with that scope.

That's a 19.95 scope I. Think... As I have one... [emoji38]

And how to break the barrel ?! Looks the scope on the way blocking the shooter to do so....

No they want to ban them, so nobody will ever mod a airgun like that again...

Not sure I would call this PA break barrel a replica airgun. This type of airgun has been around for years.

If it is, then most airguns could be considered replicas

He said replica and pellet guns..This still falls under a pellet gun. But still they want to ban anything that flings any sort of lead.

That the point, a lawyer already said most Sub 500 fps will fall under replicas. Remember we did have a LGR. So there are registered 13xx, 22xx and pretty much every airgun ever made someone modded over 500 FPS and ended up registering it.
