Steve Posted May 6, 2002 Report Share Posted May 6, 2002 Hi guys. Some money burning a hole in my pocket and I'd thought about buying one of those co2 pistols for a bit of fun. Has anyone ever had a go with one of these?? As well as target shooting, could you use one to knock over starlings in the back garden? I don't think you need a licence for one of these, but if anybody knows otherwise let me know! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigDave15 Posted May 6, 2002 Report Share Posted May 6, 2002 I have never shot one but they are the nearest thing to the real thing, You dont have to have a licence well in the U.K anyway I am not shure weather they kill birds cleanly but it sayes some of them reach 6ft lbs :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
everygoodnamewastaken Posted May 6, 2002 Report Share Posted May 6, 2002 Poor wee starlings! What they ever do to you? :evil: lol give em hell you maybe should take a wee look at this page i came across its quite funny :( http://www.mebbs.com/klitten/Airgun.htm i hope that link works theres a bit about shooting starlings (and skunks, well allmost) it probibly depends on the stregnth if you need lisence or not. Thought about a sling shot? there a lot cheaper! and quite strong! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PC Futrett Posted May 7, 2002 Report Share Posted May 7, 2002 I believe that in this country (UK) that it is illeagal to shoot any vermin with a hand gun. If you intend using it for that I would check first if I were you. (someone has to keep you guys in check when Cranfield is on holiday) :laugh: 8) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
