Running out of air.

Will it harm the pistol (LP-50) if I shoot it until it runs out of air?
Will the last shot be accurate?

Thanks:

It won't do any harm but the shots will start to drop. If the LP50 is similar to the 10 and 5 then there is no inbuilt cut off to stop shots being fired at too low pressures. My LP10 starts falling off noticeably at about 40 - 45 bar but I wouldn't shoot it under 50.

The last pellet shot will probably be stuck in the barrel, so I would say that it probably won't be accurate :)

They will drop off the bottom of the target before they get that bad plus you will hear a difference in the sound of the shot release / strike.
