Rat Shooting with Airguns

One of the most useful tools for pest control is the modern airgun. In this blog entry, I want to direct you to a video clip provided by a gentleman in the UK.
Using night vision scope setups, the owner of the video goes through about 10 minutes of rat removal in an extremely target-rich environment. It is the use of the pellet gun that makes this such a great video. Just enough power for the pest in question, without destroying property or endangering lives. This is putting an airgun to very good use.

Take note of the dead-on accuracy required for head shooting a rat. This airgunner knows what he is doing, has the correct equipment for the job, and has obviously done this a time or two. There are 3 videos, each lasting 3-5 minutes.

This video was shot in the UK where night-time lamping and shooting of rabbits and rats, as well as other pests, is legal and regulated. Depending on your location, similar opportunities for airgunning may present themselves, and it is up to you to determine the legality of such activities in your location. If you get the chance to engage in such a shoot, be sure to remove the carcasses of the dead pests and thank the owner of the property for the opportunity to provide such a service to them.
