Guest lamper/gatherer Posted March 19, 2007 Report Share Posted March 19, 2007 (edited) a powerful little pistol,being sold for a mate,used about 10 times,will kill rabbits at 100 foot,wants £60 for more info send me a p.m Edited March 19, 2007 by lamper/gatherer Link to post Share on other sites
Yokel Matt 918 Posted March 19, 2007 Report Share Posted March 19, 2007 (edited) I have one of them and i use for dispatching vermin (larson ect) and would say that, whilst they are good for plinking at cans and targets as for shooting animals at distance with them i can say that without question they are NOT UP FOR THE JOB. Not wishing to cause a scene but if a 12 ft.lb air rifle has an effective range of 30m... how a pistol with less than half that grunt going to three time that with enough wack and accuracy to kill... it ain't. Like i say they are great fun and this one looks to be in great condition . Edited May 21, 2007 by LocalYokel Link to post Share on other sites
Guest lamper/gatherer Posted March 19, 2007 Report Share Posted March 19, 2007 as said not mine,my balls up meant to put 100 ft. Link to post Share on other sites
Yokel Matt 918 Posted March 19, 2007 Report Share Posted March 19, 2007 as said not mine,my balls up meant to put 100 ft. Thats what i thought you meant mate. . i wasn't having a pop. They are a good laugh for plinking and will certainly be good for dispatching stuff like corvoids in larson traps etc if you are vested interest in keeping your fingers Link to post Share on other sites

Stabs 3 Posted March 19, 2007 Report Share Posted March 19, 2007 I used to have one of those in .177 with a nice telescopic on....took me ages to zero it. Good laugh though. Bought mine for about £120 in the early 90's. Link to post Share on other sites
Yokel Matt 918 Posted March 19, 2007 Report Share Posted March 19, 2007 Im still a little confused? It will kill Rabbits up to hundred yards? No.. Stabs.. thats when i got mine, same cal. Cost a fortune and i had to go on a waiting list as they were so popular. I promptly lost the rear site so had to put a telescopic on.. i also shot myself in the leg (just missing my balls) after wearing it in my belt. Link to post Share on other sites
Stabs 3 Posted March 19, 2007 Report Share Posted March 19, 2007 In your belt? I got mine for the birds in the traps we used to set on the land-fills. I did have a proper pistol too, but that was too noisy for tapping the corvids. We used to work alongside the tipper drivers so the least noise the better. You did get a few funny looks when you pulled out a pistol with a sight on it. It looked quite butch for an air pistol really. Link to post Share on other sites
cragman 2,843 Posted March 19, 2007 Report Share Posted March 19, 2007 100 foot or 100 ft? What's the difference , it's still over 30 odd yards! Perhaps you meant to put 10 (Ten) ft? Looks ok for rats, squirrels or birds in traps, that's all. Link to post Share on other sites
