Now this would be an interesting way to take deer

In some states, it's perfectly legal.

Actually, it's what is called a PCP airgun. They are quite capable of taking deer. I actually had a 20 gauge air shotgun, which would shoot hand made shotshells, and dangerous game slugs. I will post a pic of that. One of the most common misconceptions, is the term "bb gun". Todays airguns are a far cry from that. You can get them in .177, .22, .25, .32, .308, .45, .50, and just about any other caliber.

Hi, Paula. Actually, that is Bob Vogel, a man well known in airgunning circles. He does a lot of big game hunting with his air guns. These guns have air pressures anywhere from 2,000 psi, up to 4500 psi. That's where the power comes from.

This turkey was taken with the 20 gauge air shotgun. The squirrels were also taken with the same gun, at about 30 yards.

Thanks, Fast Eddie!

[bkln]

Yeah, OK but how's the air power generated in a CO2 container or pump action or what?

[bkln]

or maybe spring action...???

[13BVET]

Hand pumps, or scuba tanks. This is true compressed air-not co2. The hand pumps have to be rated for extremely high air pressure-at least 3,000 psi.

[13BVET]

There is a drawback to these of course-price. They can be expensive. Too damned expensive, sometimes.

This is another interesting site on this.

[13BVET]

Only for small game. Thanks for the info, also.

Oh, just for the record, the turkey was NOT taken in New York. It's illegal to hunt turkey with an airgun in New York.
