What will they think up next. I'm sure some states will allow it in archery season.

Been round and round on this in Az.
It's a Pneumatic Air Rifle that shoots an Arrowlike Projectile.

My vote is no on this particular model. Gunpowder negates it as an archery "type" weapon in my mind.

probably, but I just try to find the good in things. I use a .22lr at my home for such varmin. But I live in the county.

If you live in the city a 22short usually makes less noise that a .17 or .22 caliber pellet rifle.
I just use live traps that I get from the county dog jail. Then if it is one that I want to dispose of I'll just take it out to the country and dispose of it and then take the trap back and tell them that I wasn't successful.

I can't remember the last time I saw
22 shorts.We used to go to the local shop
and ask for "Cat killers" and your set for a week.
Now they look at you like your crazy.Or
try to hand you a pellet gun.

For those that have a rifle that will shoot them 22 shorts are still available.

Interesting. I wont be buying one though. Too many toys as it is.
Side note:
If you want to shoot rodents on the down low.
I highly recommend one of these in .22 caliber.

I'm 100% confident it would/could kill a cat (deader than a door-nail potentially) who is doing the river-dance on the hood of a freshly washed truck.
JBA Exact Jumbo heavy pellets work well.... Its potentially the most accurate thing I own and it sounds like a paper stapler going off....literally. I use it regularly to control populations of various pest species.
I have also read great reviews on the .25 but it is louder (Still super quiet though)
