Though I wonder how practical they would be for hunting or for war, given you needed to pump them 1,500 times to build up the air pressure to do one shot.
Hold on just a minute there. They guy in the video says, plain as day, it's capable of 22 consecutive shots (of .46 caliber balls) in less than 30 seconds. Even though Wikipedia says it only has a 19 shot magazine. Pretty fuc#ing impressive, no matter if you're a native or a white man, considering that repeating rifles didn't come into their own until about 50 years later.
