We'd pump our .22 Benjamans up about 20 cranks or so to hunt squirrels or possums and whatnot. After viewing what they would do to those critters, we were a bit hesitant to use them for combat....always some psycho in the crowd who would not honour the 1 or 2 pumps maximum rule.

Our rule was that no multiple pump or pellet firing guns were allowed. Single-pump Daisey 25's firing brass BB's. And of course the Infamous BB Machine Gun that fired lead BB's at relatively low velocity.

Nice rule about no pumping or pellets. A super pumped pellet rifle has similar ballistics to a 22 short or maybe even a 22 LR if an exceptionally strong kid is pumping. I've heard of the seal being popped by determined pumpers...LOL.
