Originally posted by Hand of HecateI've never seen the Walther, but IMHO you should look at a Colt Woodsman. Ruger makes a nice .22 auto pistol as well.
I'm looking at a Walther P22 for a plinking pistol and to gut shoot squirrels with. Anyone own or fire one? Any thoughts on the compensator on the end of the 5" barrel model? Any suggestions of other makes/models I should look at?

Crossman pellet gun? Its a lot quieter and its legal to shoot in a
city I think. Don't quote me on that one though.

The squirrels are asking for it. Little blighters flit around with their fuzzy tails, chatter at you and fling nuts at people. They're a menace, basically rats with fuzzy tails and should be exterminated.
As for God sending his eternal justice my way, I don't recall the Bible having a "Thou shalt not snuff out squirrels" commandment. I bet Jesus ...[text shortened]... 're all full up on crazy here.

Get a grip man.

He would put some 'Jesus Juice' on 'em and really fastball a rock down range. Just paws and a tail would be left. Jesus doesn't mess around.

Maybe you could use a m16 or a bit of c4

Originally posted by Hand of HecateThis is great , but you're not looking at the larger picture : I assume that you're going to be teaching your kids how to shoot soon . Killing is going to be an abstraction to a 4 year old if you blow the varmit to bits with c4 . He won't get the right idea about how it should be done unless he sees the full effect of a hollow-point on the squirrel body . Plus the blast could traumatize him . We must be careful that he doesn't get scared off killing early on .

An M16 is going to be too large for him , ruining his aim . This also could discourage him from killing . Teaching him how to shoot a revolver with a two hand grip is going to teach him how to shoot and kill properly . Plus with all of the gun violence he's seen on TV , he'll have an automatic connection to operating a revolver .
Remember the little ones . You need to be a role model for him in everything you do .

All squirrels can be encouraged by planting oaks, hazel and beech.
I thought they are hibernating just now so shoot acorns.
Originally posted by Moldy CrowYou're right of course. Hence the interest in the Walther P22. The small frame is ideal for my wife's smaller hand. Nothing would give be a blue steel woody faster than my wife pumping round after round into a squirrel. I might need some alone time with it's tiny corpse.

Once we have kids, I plan to condition them with routine showings of Scarface, Platoon, Gladiator, Full Metal Jacket, and various 80's gore fest horror movies. I also think that telling them, "Mommy won't love you unless you kill the squirrel" will be effective.
