Haha you look at the vast majority of target and free pistol airguns and they're ugly as fuck.
Honestly, ash, just go with something that'll get you 450+ fps. They're entirely safe when used properly (as most things are). I wouldn't use them in my backyard, but I wouldn't use a 300 fps air pistol in my backyard either (I'm talking inner city, 800 sq ft backyard though, not something more rural).
Generally, if it's safe to use a 300 fps airgun, it's probably safe to use a higher-powered one (with the exception of the really high-powered 800+ fps ones). in the same area.
Regarding the spring gun: I would personally avoid it. When you're shooting something as small as pellets or bbs it's almost invariably going to be for plinking (with the occasional person murdering small animals as well), and the fun of plinking is multiple shots - to me anyway. For a pistol I would recommend a more powerful CO2 weapon.
