Bolt gun
« on: March 27, 2019, 07:43:21 PM »
I am not sure if the link will open. Has anyone had or used a bolt gun on live trapped Beavers?

Did you read the uses?
That bolt gun is made for poultry. Also it takes a compressor that can produce 80PSI.
So downsides:
I doubt it would handle a beaver or probably any mammal.
You have to be tethered to a compressor.
It costs $900.

Wildlife Control Supplies in Canada sells a captive bolt gun that is powered by 380 caliber blanks. They come in several power levels. I use them for euthanizing beaver and other similar sized mammals. Work fine and no loud report.

Cheap 22 caliber air rifle?
If I need a permit and education to buy a firearm than women should need a permit and education  before getting an abortion.

Voting for Democrats is prima facie evidence you are a skirt wearing, low T, beta male. Do better.

The why might be for use in no-shooting zones.
