^that pistol looks pretty nice, SF^
I think spring pistols/shotguns are undervalued. They're pretty powerful(read as:have more power than EBBs and some GBBs), easy to repair, easy to manage, don't jam to often(if they do, they're easy to un-jam), and cost a low amount of funds. The only problem that exists with them is that they're one-shot per pump. At the very least, they're good for an emergency/back-up/backyard skirmish weapon.
