Reply With QuoteA gamekeeper mate of mine uses an old spring powered BSA Scorpion for this job.
An HW45 or a Diana P5 magnum should do.
Don't even think about any of the umarex look-a-likes or any target pistol.

Can any one tell me whats is the best type of air pistol for dispatching squirrels. I intend to trap them live in the garden and then dispatch them. I need to trap as there is a public footpath running down the back of the house.
Thanks for any help in advance

i know that a lot of forestry workers use Crosman 2240 or the Sheridan eb series .
a gun is just a tool how its used is dependant on the person behind the trigger .
This is why constant restrictions on legal users will have no effect on the unlawfull use of guns or knives !

We're not supposed to be posting messages here about hunting. so be careful not to let the subject matter stray beyond humane dispatch of trapped critters.
