Is this one of the “air cartridge” rifles? I read they developed cartridges that were charged with a pump or tank, so were individually charged. Apparently this was a thing in Britain a while back, very controversial, a bunch of weird laws exist about them there. Seems a .50 cal replica cartridge at 3000 psi might be a self contained unit? Replicas with .22 cal pellets were shooting at 400-450 FPS.
