Anybody know what - "automatischer Diabolo-Spender" mean

Should we be getting excited ?

Ok, had a chat with me mate...

Another form of quick way of loading the pellet - but manual steps all the way..

Cock the lever
Push the button - pellet drops into your hand
You manually load into chamber
Fire

repeat another 18 steps to empty 20 pellets in magazine...

Effectively a Fwb or Steyr SUMMER Biathlon rifle....

Explains it all...

We fatty middle age men would be out of breath...

"After the success of the 2016 National Series, British Shooting are proud to announce the competition dates and venues for the 2017 National Target Sprint Series.
The event, which was introduced to the UK last year and culminated in an entrapping Championship Final in Cardiff, is an exciting new way of getting involved in target shooting.
Participants run 400 metres before shooting down five targets with a rifle. They then run another 400 metres, shoot five more targets and then complete a final 400 metre run.
The event is great for those who love shooting but want to keep active, but equally good for those who love running but fancy mixing it up a little bit.
We would like to thank our Target Sprint Series Partner, Air Arms for their continued support."

Close up of cocking lever

What's my thinking

16 Joules Field Target Special Custom

16Joules Black action - with this cocking lever
Silver Reg
Silver alu cylinder with Walther Quick fill or Mick Tromans Titanium cylinder
Black Carbon barrel
Black Alu LG400 stock (NOT this alu stock)
Walnut Grip, cheekrest and hamster - modded to Rowan mech.
KK500 Butt hook or per already on LG400M FT
Jon Harris scope rail
Silver March 8-80 or Kahles K50

Done !

Around 6:00 mark, see how the cocking downwards is done..ideal as mentioned for a 16J Field Target use...

Around 9:25 mark, is a demo of the feeder style model, where shooter manually loads as fast as they can, take the shot and do over and over again..
