wouldn't waste my money.
Most missed the point of this rifle. Once pumped up it only takes 3 pumps each shot instead of 8 from a normal 392 to get your full power shots. You can have a couple shots in reserve without pumping if needed. The indicator would beat a gauge cause all you need to know is when it's full and you can feel it without looking. It also has a modified trigger. It's a cool ideal and should work fine. Basically just made it a lot more efficient. Still on the fence over the price.

The OP wanted someone to explain this rifle and I did my best. When I recently put my basket case Benjamin 317 together it held air and after 8 pumps would release a full power shot. It took about three pumps to get another full power shot. I played with it for awhile and then cut a few coils off the valve spring to solve the problem. It now dumps 10 pumps if needed but I have it sighted in at 15 yards with three because I mostly plink with it. Most of us understand exactly what this gun is and that it's not rocket science to modify a pumper to work in a similar way. That's why several including me have said they wouldn't waste their money on it.Bryan
Full power is 685 per site. It's shooting 500?? They turned a 392 into a lightly modded 1322 power wise. Novelty, yes, practical I'm tempted to "try" to tune down my Disco to 8fpe and see how many shots I get.
If you only have to use 3 pumps to get to "full power" it is not really full power is it. It "may" be 685 but not full power it is capable of. Whatever floats your boat.
