He probably means a 1200fps pump air rifle.
There's that mini-gun bb. It chews up a television in a video that is popular on the gun sites.
There's that 'full auto' russian bb gun, but it only has like 300 fps.
Otherwise, I got nothing.

About 40 years ago I bought a BB pistol semi-auto that was known as a "Plainsman". Used CO2 and would fire BBs as fast as you could pull the trigger. Style was similar to the Ruger .22s of today. You slid the rear sight up and poured in a couple hundred BBs. A screw let you select lo. med. hi power. Don't know the velocity but you got about 50 shots (at selected highest power) per CO2. It was enough to kill rabbits and squirrels at about 10 yards. Of course I never fired just once but at least 3-5 times just to be sure. Havent seen them since I sold mine in 1972.
Crosman makes a semi auto rifle thats supposed to be good for about 600 fps. Has a rotary magazine/clip (kind of like a really thin cylinder for a revolver, they drop in though so you can carry more than one). I think it takes 2 CO2 cartridges, but the one I looked at at the store a couple days ago had an adapter on it for something else.
Hmmm, I'm not sure such an animal exists. Here's a list of "multi-shot" air guns:

But the true semi-autos (like the Crosman 1008 pistols), and the full autos (Izhmash Drodz Bumble Bee) are CO2 and therefore not real powerful. The powerful ones are repeaters, but apparently all require some additional action to cycle to the next round, besides another pull of the trigger.
The ShinSung Career 707 *may* be the fastest cycling repeater (lever action) in a powerful gun - it's a PCP and very powerful - very ugly too.
Oh, here we go - as the gentleman mentioned, here's the Crosman at 600 fps, and says "semi auto" with a "12 shot rotary magazine". Sounds good:
