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.
