I don't know how he's getting over 100 ft lbs of kinetic energy *AND multiple shots all from one internal compact high pressure container/chamber/tank that I presume is built into the gun's magazine.
If they advertised something more realistic like let's say 40 ft lbs of energy (FPE) with .25 cal lead slugs ("bullets") it would have been more believable.
The AG4P is advertised as a semi automatic air pistol which must mean it's also using some sort of blowback action like the many replica blowback air pistols that are in the market today, but using higher pressure air.
Mind you if they somehow managed to get all that high pressure air in a small magazine sized air chamber/tank then any quality control issue would mean that little thing is essentially turned into a fragmentation grenade.
I seriously do not understand why he would outright lie and embellish so significantly the air pistol's capability. He could've just said it's power is likely to be unknown until the first prototype is made, but realistically based on the laws of physics it will most likely match the FPE (foot lbs of energy) of a .22 short pistol. That would've been more realistic, believable, and he probably would've gotten more early investors/pre-order buyers.
