Pump action is ok depending on the quality of the rifle (read reviews), CO2 is better, but stay the hell away from spring action (useless).
And maybe get the real pellet type with pointed tips. Not the spherical BB type. .177 isn't bad if you are running over 400 FPS on C02.

A fully automatic airsoft rifle shooting over 10 balls per second over 400 FPS will also deal out death quite quickly but not humane at all.
