Hey I used to have one of those..I loved mine...it finally broke..had it for years.

I just bought Vinny a Remington Airmaster 77..shoots bbs or pellets..$69.99 at Wallmart!!

Got it for his Birthday next week..he kinda out grew his Daisey Red Rider..

Now I can nail that Fuggin' Skunk that lives in my back yard..stinkin' up the place..I'll shoot 'em right in his stink shooter..Fuggum!

You can kill animals that stink..or ugly..that's a rule..skunks are kinda cute tho..ahhh Fuggums!!

Chris Rock's mom is suing all of them. She claims that they are being killed, simply because they are black.

I kill crows all the time! Especially when they are eating the fruit of my trees!

[Soloist1]

A crow would laugh at you if you hit it with that piece of junk. Step up to a Gamo Shadow Hunter at least.

Happy? lol

[RacerX]

Well, I have had some success with the Crosman, but it finally broke, Soloist1, so I got a new gun!

A Mendoza RM-600 spring air rifle

http://www.airgunsbbguns.com/Mendoza_Air_Rifle_RM_600_177_and_22_Caliber_p/dyn2164600-rm600.htm

My first spring air gun, and it's a doozy! 1150 fps and loud as hell. A lot heavier and more powerful than the kid gun I was using. (The Crosman was adjustable power, I think it was around 550 fps?) I think it may be too much gun for my purpose! Springers require a different shooting stance and need to be broken in, so on Thanksgiving weekend I'll go out to my sister's place out in the boonies and play around with it. I've done research on pellets and it seems like if I go with a heavier grain, it'll slow the velocity a bit. Hopefully in the 900 range.
I got a huge scope in a package deal, too, but I haven't installed it yet.
It's a RWS Model 450 Scope - 3-9 X 40

I have shot it using the open sights but I haven't hit any crows yet. So it may need to be broken in + I have to study the shooting method (If any of you are wondering about this, check out the last half of this excellent article describing why it's necessary for spring guns http://www.airgunwriter.com/rws-350.html )

all living creatures deserve to live

Just not 30 of those cucking frows in a tree right next to my homes. That is when the pump BB Gun gets going. I just don't let my neighbors see me.

Crows are fine by me, it is the flying rats (pigeons) that I can't stand. A neighbor of ours had six of them and moved away. But he let the birds go instead of taking them with him. The damn things roosted on the top of my house, and they covered it with crap. I had crap running down the side of the house, and we could not even use the back yard from all of the crap.

I finally got my sons super soaker water cannon and went to town on them. I took out three, and the other three got wise and left. Firing a high velocity quart or two of water from about 15 feet away really launches
them in the air (doing endos), and the landing is what took them out.

Filthy flying rats.

I know exactly what you're saying, Bill! My new gun is almost as loud as a centerfire .22 ! I had researched Gamos before heading out to Big 5 Sporting Goods, but the manager gave me a killer deal on the Mendoza + the badass scope: $100 for both! (The gun alone is usually $170 and the scope around $150). The cashier didn't believe me, he had to go confirm with the manager ha ha! At first I didn't wanna get the Mendoza (cuz I had researched the Gamo & Walther guns which were on sale so I wasn't prepared for the Mendoza) but the salesman reassured me that I should buy it, then research it when I got home, if I didn't like the reviews, I could come back and return it no problem. That way, if I did like the reviews, I wouldn't have to hassle with going back to the store.

But this thing is super loud! Check out this first review - talking about how loud this gun is

Maybe it'll quiet down when broken in. Maybe I'll let my neighbors know what's up.

[fett]

I have one of these. But, mine is an older model with a metal receiver. $3 at the fleamarket. Four pumps will get the BB up there. The cool thing is that it is very quiet.

[RacerX]

Yeah that's the older Crosman Pumpmaster.

Will that actually kill a crow?

[fett]

I don't try and kill them. I just like to piss them off. Kinda like you guys. When I was about 10, I had a Daisy Model 1894 Winchester BB gun. Those are the greatest BB Guns ever made. . Well, I saw a butterfly and took the shot. I put a BB hole right in it's little wing. I felt bad. But, I did take my Marksman 45 BB pistol out one morning and murdered about 100 snails. I didn't feel bad about that. There is a moral here somewhere.

:ROTF: Yeah, I hate pigeons, too, Doug. They are very messy. The ones in my hood hang out on the south and southwest of my house, and I don't like to shoot in that direction (too many witnesses).

By "took out" do you mean you killed those pigeons with a SuperSoaker? (They died when they hit the ground?) Them's some weak ass pigeons! :ROTF:

I tried shooting the suburban ones around here with my Gamo air pistol (400 fps) and the pellet just bounced off! He didn't fly away either! The pigeon was probably saying "That all you got?"

[DrDoug]

The pigeons would not fly off unless you were real close to them. I waited until the pigeons were perched on a powerline that crossed over my rear deck, and stood just to the rear of them and fired a high pressure enema up their asses. It launched them about 40-50 feet in the air, then they would tumble like a rag and smack the ground. I was surprised that it killed them.

But it got rid of them, and the neighbors were happy too. They were crapping on the cars and everywhere else. I have never seen birds crap so much in my life. Six of them? It looked like a hundred of them were roosting on my house.
