Which Pistol?

[eyebull]

The girl is 16 and the vermin are in a backgarden with houses either side . If one cannot discuss vermin when talking about guns the forum to me is pointless and no longer want to be associated with tin town cowboys.

You can discuss vermin, and hunting, and pistols, but not hunting vermin with pistols.

Thems the rules matey - we don't have many here, but that's one of them.

In what scenario do you think a pistol is a better tool than a carbine, for humane pest control?
