Is that for real? It looks like a Lee single stage reloading press for metallic cartridges hooked up to a scuba tank , but I don't see a pump valve. kirby

What I have read is that is loads air into brass cartridges. Each cartridge after you fill it, you put a pellet in the end. When you load and shoot cartridge from specific PCP, it fires one round. At first I thought it was a pump for small scuba tank which got me all excited..:) Here is the link. Gene

Gene's right about how they load. Brocock Guns are RARE animals these days.

Brocock used to make airguns that worked almost the SAME way as a Firearm. A brass cartrige was charged with air, then a pelled loaded and a cap got screwed on to retain the pellet. Load 6 rounds into what looked like an S&W revolver and pop away. Th UK outlawed them because criminals were buying them then converting them to shoot .38 special with minimal and I mean MINIMAL modifications.

They had a few variations, but now they're all hard to come by. Especially in the states.

Thanks for clarifying the way they work Sam. Maybe the US should outlaw them as well...:)
