SIG MCX Virtus PCP Air Rifle
The HPA bottle inside the synthetic stock is intended to be filled with compressed air only. Also notice the folding sights. This would make a good trainer and/or varmint gun.

MCX Virtus PCP semi-automatic air rifle includes a 30-round rapid pellet magazine and 17.5-inch barrel with M-LOK handguard for mounting accessories.

The air cylinder is refillable and can deliver up to 150 shots per fill.

The new .22-cal. MCX Virtus PCP Air Rifle shoots up to 700 fps with muzzle energy of 11 foot-pounds. As mentioned, the barrel length is 17.5 inches and the overall length is 37.25 inches. Additionally, the weight is 7.5 pounds.
