They were powerful. With a lead pellet, and about 60 to 70 feet away, you
could bring down a full grown squirrel.
You could also imbed a bb in the tip of your finger, with just two pumps, if
you held your finger over the end of the barrel and pulled the trigger,
thinking the chamber was empty.
You will have to try and find someone to ask, who knows that is true,
though. "I" would never do such a dumb thing. <g>
