If the concentration is a bit high, you will kill them

Handy being in the garage then, all that privacy to dig a nice deep hole, drop them in, bit of lime, and cover it back over.

Jobs a good 'un. Crime rate for the area drops significantly.

Seems a win win to me 😀

In alaska, when bears keep coming back, they trap them, scare them half to death, drug them and put them to sleep and then release them miles away in the middle of nowhere, it stops over 50% coming back.

This would be bloody brilliant. Capture them, back of a van into the middle of nowhere or central Bristol at the height of rush hour, tell them to strip stark bollock naked and push them out the van.

There was an urban legend in the 90s along similar lines about some scallys selling fake drugs at Castlemorton or a similar rave. The crusties rounded them up, force fed them life-changing / experimentally large doses of LSD and locked them in a van with their dogs for 24 hours. No idea if true.

Squirrelking, sorry I upset you and you feel the need to get personal, but turns out you’re still wrong, it’s 3.5J, 2.3 ft/lbs, 360 feet per second, amused that you went to the trouble of trying to look it up.
It was tongue in cheek, I’m not expecting him to get a gun, but if my guy comes back hes probably getting shot in the arse, especially if he is bold enough to carry on and not leg it the second I spot him, it’s my word against his, no witnesses, deny everything.😀

Who's getting personal? I just get annoyed when people start spouting nonsense about using air guns for personal protection, I'm up in Scotland and now have to live with the consequences of folk doing that and worse.

As for looking it up, I had one briefly and know it wasn't all that. CO2 pistols generally aren't powerful, more so revolver types like a CP99 so I know it's going to be crap. As it is I see wherever I got my figures from was wrong, here:

But 2.3fpe is shite no matter what way you paint it and still not much above airsoft. Like I said, more likely to annoy someone and if they've come tooled up not a great strategy. It also doesn't take much to get into bother, your word against theirs is all well and good until they show the welts.

I've seen a sign locally on a bit of derelict land that the adjoining house clearly doesn't want people going on, it says "Rats and Disease". Keep Out clearly wasn't doing the job.
