Right, again to explicitly exempt the airguns, but not something that we can use, or at least, they won't seem to let us use.

The standard they use is manufacturer's info, not actual testing. So, when you see the 495 fps label on a Crosman gun, that's good enough. Any bets what they would say about a semi-auto only PTW that says 150 m/s (490 fps) on the box? I guarantee it would never cross the border, but the Crosman would. That's the issue, the double-standard I refer to.
