    is the pressure adjustable?
    example, dial it down to 240fps for training, crank it up to 350 for use.

    I picked one up. Took a cardboard box with a target in it and the rubber balls went right through and make a loud noise against the metal backing (to rescue the balls).

    Amazing product

    Listed on a few websites as 375 fps of lung blowing power...

    This pistol is completely underpowered for self-defense. From the SFRC website: "These .50 caliber rubber rounds weigh in at about 17.4 grains". At the muzzle velocity of 375fps (#37) the rubber ball makes 5.43foot-pounds or 7.37 J of muzzle energy. Even assuming 440 fps at the muzzle it comes to a measly 7.5 foot-pounds or 10.14 J at the muzzle. That's a JOKE! One needs about 70 J at the muzzle (probably even a bit more) for a hard rubber (or rubber-steel) ball to incapacitate a approximately 170lbs male at a relatively short distance. Surely, the Umarex pistol can be used for practice and training for the beginners. No problem with that.
