I know this much, I would not want to be shot with my break barrel .177 cal pellet rifle.
That sucker delivers.
If someone pointed that at me, I’d empty my .40 cal into them.
Yeah I would not want to get shot with a pellet gun. His pointing it at the cops though, bad move!
I’m tempted to say this was a case of suicide by police. The guy didn’t have the stones to just off himself, so he set up a scenario where he could get an LEO to do it for him. JMHO.
