I'm not getting this. Are you now saying that my elephant rifle collection is now reduced by the # of .22LR's I own, but increased by the one .177 pellet gun (if handguns are allowed)? If so, what about a .22 calibre pellet pistol - that one's really powerful - you can pump it up to 10 times (before it leaks like a seive, then bleeds off to 6 pumps - about)?
