What do you guys think of a co2 powered pistol to ward off squirrels that feed off bird feeders or scare birds away?
What do I have to do to be allowed? If there's any restrictions.
Preferably I don't want to kill them, just teach a lesson. Would you guys reccomend a slingshot instead?

Rodents are retards they will keep coming even if you mount their corpses on spikes all around the bird feeder
>What do I have to do to be allowed?
No idea-Dont get caught, its not hard
>Preferably I don't want to kill them, just teach a lesson.
They
dont
care
>Would you guys reccomend a slingshot instead?
You are just going full retard now

So kill them, yes?
You just reminded me how stupid they are.
Can't get in trouble if I don't get caught

Or try to figure out a squirrel-proof bird eater
Probably something hanging with a configuration that squirrels cant get on the rope to descent

Just get a squirrel-proof bird feeder. They're built so that the weight of a squirrel presses down the wall and blocks off access to the food inside, but a bird's weight is insufficient to close it off.

You obviously don't have a dog. Two weeks of my dog barking at squirrels on the back patio, and I haven't seen squirrels in four months.

The feeder itself is squirrel proof but I have a squirrel sit on the floor and eat the sunflower seeds that fell down.
That's all well and good, but while the squirrel is there, birds refuse to come, so the squirrel has to go.
I did think about placing food down for just the squirrel but they eat it way too fast

Check local air rifle regulations. Many cities ban discharging co2 or pump powered guns. If you shoot at a squirrel, try not to fire at any upward angle. The last thing you need is to accidentally hit somebody or to damage someone's property by missing your shot.
How it works I'm my world.
>Alr rifles are not firearms
>Hold a state issued hunting license
>No hunting with dischrage of firearms with. 500 feet of occupied dwelling
>Fox grey and black squirres get shot off feeder between Sept 15 and March 31.
>Especially black squirrels
>Red squirrel and chipmunks get shot year-round to extermination level because they want to live in my house with me.
>Because Diana RWS 37 .22 @950 fps and 3x9 scope is not a firearm and because I am licensed hunter and because I don't make a big deal about it.
Also, traps are best efficient method.
