How do you identify a pellet rifle?
A pellet rifle has no firing pin. It also can not fire a bullet or gunpowder. It can not be made to do so either. The pellet has no charge (casing like a bullet) it just a pellet. However pellet rifles can be just as deadly as a real firearm. They use Air or C02 to project the pellet downrange. Some Pellet rifles are used for hunting, others for target practice. The Major difference between a firearm and an air rifle, is Gunpowder is use in Firearms and Air or C02 is used in Air rifles.
What website do you go to for most expensive pellet gun?
It's not so much the website as it is the Class of Airgun/Rifles that are expensive. I am referring to the most powerful and expensive airguns around. These are known as PCP's (PreCharged Pneumatic) air rifles. This class of air rifles are used in the Olympics (Cost around $3.000) or for hunting medium to large game. Most pellet guns or rifles fire a .177, .20 or .22 caliber pellet. PCP's can fire up to 9mm, 45 cal, 357, or 50 cal. These are extremely big boar air rifles. see the links below for the air gun sites

What is the difference between an air rifle and a BB gun?
Both are powered by Air or CO2. But a bb gun fires a bb. (.177 caliber) BB guns and Rifles traditionally have smooth bore barrels. Air Rifles (I assume you are asking about Pellet firing air rifles) fire .177 pellets usually through a "rifled bore barrel" giving the pellet more spin and causing it to travel straighter. Pellet Air Rifles come in .177 cal, but also come in 20, 22, 25, 45 and 50 Caliber pellets. They tend to be more powerful than the bb rifles. Crosman, Daisy Beeman and RWS are just a few of the air gun makers who make bb guns and Pellet Air Rifles.
Who Manufactures of high velocity pellet guns?
There are several manufactures of High Velocity pellet guns and rifles. Just to name a few: Air Force, ShinSung, Benjamin, Feinwerkbau, Daystate, Anschutz, Beeman, Alfa, Evanix, Crosman, Gamo/BSA, Hammerli, Sumatra, Air Armes and Falcon. All of these are PCP (PreCharged Pneumatic) air guns and rifles that require a special pump, Compressor or Scuba tank to charge them to 3,000 PSI. The Sam Yang model fires a 50 caliber pellet that will bring down a deer. PCP air guns /rifles are beyond the C02 and springer power plants that most air guns use. But these guns /rifles will cost you more than the normal air rifle. They come in .177, .20, .22, .25, 9mm, 45 .cal and 50caliber barrels. These are the Air rifles used by professionals and Olympic shooters in the Olympics.

Not necessarily, but similar. An air rifle can be a BB gun, or it can be a pellet gun. Pellet guns are rifled, have more power, greater accuracy. .
