I found this related video quite interesting. It seems there’s different power output limitations depending on the importing country:
No, these are the same power where ever you buy one mate. My mate at the shooting club has one. His only does about 340 - 400 fps on a hot day when measured on my Alpha Chrony. You'd think with a longer barrel than a pistol they would be more powerful. It's all to do with the valving. You compare it with the Webley Nemesis x in .177 and that pushes out nearly 700 fps and in .22 it pushes out over 550 fps. All down to the valving I reckon. I actually quite like the new Nemesis X. It is not a replica though but for a cheap and tidy little Military looking carbine shooting at nearly 10ftlb, it would rip bean through cans for sure. On my list for sure, but given the issues with the pistol I’d like a few more of them to be ‘out there’ first  |

Yes I quite fancy the Nemesis X myself. I enjoyed the nemesis pistol as it had great power. It does not surprise me at all about how powerful this version is. In fact I might get one very soon. |

Hi John Your SIG MCX is desirable though. I have tried to get my mate to sell me is. But he wont.  And yes I fancy the MPX too. Lovely looking guns. And great for plinking in the garden. Ideal in fact. I’m really getting into CO2 rifles, I love the ones you show in your pictures, all of them lol. The MPX is gorgeous to shoot - not super noisy while still having a bit of power to hit some targets. Really like it. Has your mate let you shoot his? Love to know what you think of it if possible. As you mention, great for garden plinking. |

I liked it.........alot. |

Atrocious sound on this video but high levels of MCX imagery porn.

When I was in the Army Cadets @ 13 years old we used to parade at the R.E.M.E. Barracks which had a shooting range there Imagine when we where told we where going to shoot real rifles!! the ones we used where the shorted Jungle issue Lee Enfield great fun . When I joined the Army proper at 15 years old in the Winter intake 1965 we used the FN when training after that our guns where a bit bigger Chieftain Tanks  |

I like shooting things too I bought my first Co2 rifle a few weeks ago and my, the fun I’m having with it. PS I’ve never shot a tank but I did see one at a military fair once and had my photo taken beside it I was quite thrilled with that I was hoping to buy somebody’s Biggles hat off him but he disappeared before I could offer him the dosh! :/ These rifles are crazy amounts of fun:
I've watch so many of these twin rifle vids I've convinced myself I need both of them lol.
