It's a 22 air rifle with a bored-out breech to take small containers of pellets, a SGC would not be required, and FAC only if it's over 12 ft/lbs.

We used to do something similar when we were kids, a small piece of tissue paper in the breech of the air gun, a few pellets of dust shot and another small piece of tissue paper to stop them rolling back. I don't remember anybody actually killing a sparrow with them, but shooting flying butterflies and bees over lavender bushes kept us amused for hours.

I've just got back from Spain and I was looking at one of these over there. I don't really need one, as I've got severeal air rifles, pistols and a shotgun, but they do look like fun! As had been said though, it would have to be on FAC

those gamo things are not suitable for hunting, the shotshells they give you are absolute ****, they wouldn't kill a mouse
