A pneumatic air gun is a type of firearm-like device that uses compressed air or gas—instead of gunpowder—to propel a projectile (usually pellets or BBs). These are commonly used for target shooting, training, pest control, and recreational shooting.

A pneumatic air gun stores compressed air in a chamber. When the trigger is pulled, a valve releases a burst of this air, which pushes the pellet through the barrel at high speed.

• Single-stroke pneumatic: Requires one pump before each shot. Simple and consistent, often used for beginner target practice.
• Multi-pump pneumatic: Needs several pumps to build pressure; more pumps = more power.
• Pre-charged pneumatic (PCP): Uses a pre-filled air reservoir (often filled with a hand pump or tank). These are more powerful and used in advanced shooting.
