i had a "clean out the garage" day today. i felt i needed to be armed in case an aggressive rat tried to kill me. soooooo, i chose an airgun for good point blank shots.... my marauder....
low and behold one popped up on a shelf when i moved a box, looking right at me as though to say "why are you in my house" i put the barrel all of 4-6 inches from him, aimed at his neck and.....ppfftt. dead.
the kodiak again at 760+fps went through.
was that hunting???
never did one execution style before.
i was gonna do a "f#ck you" shot as he did the fish but i didn't want a ricochet off the concrete.  |

I think it is just straight up rodent execution,but cool none the less. This reminds me of one summer,when I did some rodent dispatching at my mom's place.The little bastards chewed a hole in the insulation,wall,and ended up in the kitchen cupboards.I got about 15-16 before I realized where they were coming from.
I got some with an air gun,and some with traps.I remember laying on the couch,and hearing a trap go off,and then some serious thrashing going on.I went out to the kitchen,and there was the biggest damn rat I have ever seen!We are talking New York sewer rat size.It had thrashed itself out of the cupboard,knocked most of the stuff off the counter, on his way to the floor.The bar from the trap got him right across the eyes,so it took a minute or so for him to croak. After I got them all I sealed up the hole with some expanding foam,and there have been no issues since.  |

Dude, you totally blew it.
Chance of a lifetime, all you had to do was yell "LOOKIT YOU NOW YOU FOKIN MARICONE!" while he was doing the funky chicken and you'd have been Grand Poobah of Pimps for Life.  |

public executions DO prevent more crime.
2 of his friends must have watched.  |
