    You have a slight problem if ordering from Poland, it's advertised at 140 meters per second in .22, which is 459fps. There's no mention of pellet weight, but assuming for example AA Fields at 16grain, it produces 7.48fpe. Even with 14.3grain pellets, produces 6.69fpe at that speed.
    11.9grain hobbies come in at 5.56fpe, but that's not to believe this is what the velocity is quoted on.

    It could be that we are getting a de-tuned version for the UK, but then again, i could be wrong. All depends on what pellet weight those manufacturer specs were set on

    The ones I've seen advertised were quoted at 5.5ft/lbs in .177 and unusually, slightly lower in .22 at 5.0 ft/lbs when I would have expected that to be the other way around.
    Should be very straughtforward to restrict though if needed...

    If they are capable of shooting at over 6 ftlbs then I suspect the difference in the UK model may well be that it has been modified to shoot under the limit and also be anti tamper and if you need to modify the design then that costs money which we will have to pay in the form of an increased price

    Its a very simple design extremely similar to Crosmans and it'll be similarly simple to modify.
    From what I've seen there are no anti-tamper measures incorporated.
