    How many shots before you have to recharge the air tank?

    IIRC, its 3 good shots, then it drops off quickly.
    That doesnt sound very impressive, but if you will never get 3 shots at the same coyote,

    Wow ive been waiting for them to make this since i first shot a friends .25 cal version.
    I wonder if it will also accept the smaller caliber barrels as well. If i can get one in .45 with a .177 spare sign me up

    That lever on the left side, is it for recharging the tank?

    I couldn't edit my post, it's the one on the right I meant, the website says it's for opening the action.

    Is it a shrouded fore stock? Useless to us if it is.

    How do you charge the tank, then? With an air compressor? That would be rather impractical

    You would need a pretty expensive compressor for 3000 PSI. I don't think a bike pump is going to cut it. Maybe off a scuba tank if you are a diver.

    Would take a truly dedicated person to choose this over archery equipment or a muzzleloading rifle.

    Whatever floats your boat.
