AIR RIFLES

[bodhijobs]

Hi All,

I am a new member in this community. In the past, I have read posts here and understand that there are many people here who are very knowledgeable about guns.

I have a query. I have a farm house which is infested by large rats. I was thinking of buying an air rifle via which I can eliminate a few of those.

I do have an air pistol 0.22 calibre but that is not much of an help, i havent tried it on them though but i get a feeling that the pistol wont work.

Any of you here, could you please guide me on this? I am from New Delhi and would like to have the idea of the shops also.

thanks in advance for your kind help.

Airpistol is not good for this work.

you can buy Ihp mod 35 .22 airrifle. I think it is better to do it.
I got a great sucess to use it to killing rats....

you can use any local made .22 long barrel airrifle . ballon forne ka banduk mat lena. Ow kisi kam ka nehi he.

Hi Raju,

Thanks buddy for your suggestion.

how do i know which one is a balloon forne wala bandook and which one isnt? I mean I am new to this gun things though I have a great interest since childhood and thought now its time to get into the league...better late than never...

i saw the IHP 35, 0.22 calibre on the net...it has a range of 35 meters...is that ok?

yeah , its enough.
Genrelly, your can shoot it properly under 10 -15 meter range..

how do i know which one is a balloon forne wala bandook and which one isnt?

ballon forne wala bonduk is small , length appox 2.5 meter and its pletes are small.
But others are over 3.5 meter long.

This is my .22 airrifle.
I use it for killing rats.
It is local made , 7 years old..

thanks again...do the size of 0.22 pellets vary from balloon fornewala ones and the real ones????

[rraju2805]

u r most welcome. It's my pleasure.

Yeah , of course.
.22 's plete is bigger than ballon forne wala bounduk's
plete.
As ballon forne wala is .177 cal.

This is .22 cailbar's plete.

The pic is a bit out of focus...however got the idea...for my pistols, i am having these pellets only...

Just wondering, since it seems raju, you know quite a lot, i saw a video in Gamo website, that a Hog was shot down by an air gun with a single strike...is it possible?

suggestion on what? what are allowed to be killed under wildlife act?

guess, we can kill rats nothing else...am not at all sure though...

can someone enlighten?

[rraju2805]

don't take tension.
rats are not in wildlife act.
frogs come under wildlife rules

[meow]

i think you can do rats and crows. nothing else.

[rraju2805]

I HOPE SO....

i think you must use some pesticides in you farm to remove rats from farm land. Consult with some department for good farming so problem will be solved. Killing of rats is not cure. Thanx.
