An airgun is configured to launch a variety of less lethal projectiles such that they are delivered on target with a predetermined amount of impact energy, regardless of range and projectile type. The airgun includes a range finder, an adjustable air mass system, a trigger system, and a controller. The range finder determines a distance to target, and the controller uses the distance to target to determine an energy level for the adjustable air mas system. The airgun includes a temperature sensor and the controller reduces or eliminates the determined energy level as a function of the temperature and the projectile type of the projectile.
An airgun, comprising:
