Holy cow that thing is cool. 800 pounds of pressure? That stock was insanely long. They mentioned that they demonstrated it to historians from the Carlisle Barracks. I've done research there about the Indian boarding school. Now, where can I get me one of those air musket things?
Someone is planning on making repos for sale but they'll be WAY expensive.

A gasket made of horn? Interesting. 800 PSI? 1500 pumps?

The expense of it is probably why it never caught on in any US Military circles.
