Except most cities ban shooting in city limits. Use an Air gun.

WELL BY THE REGS YOU CAN'T USE A PELLOT GUN ON UPLAND BIRDS, RIGHT? I WAS DEBATING IT, (WELL ON MY SISTER'S PROPERTY, IN THE COUNTY). I WASN'T AWARE THAT LIKE TO DIG IN GARDENS,.. LOL.

JUST THINNING OUT THE "SPARROW" AND "SPARLING" POPULATION

BIGINNER · « **Reply #10 on:** May 28, 2010, 02:57:14 PM »

OK.. WELL I'M GONNA THREAD JACK MY OWN THREAD,.... MY PELLOT GUN IS PRETTY BIG, ACTUALLY ITS REALLY BIG, ITS BIGGER THAN ALL MY GUNS, WELL, EVEN THOUGH MY SISTER LIVES IN THE COUNTY AND HAS 6 ACRES OF PROPERTY, I FEEL UNCONFORTABLE SHOOTING MY PELLOTGUN ON HER PROPERTY, CUS THE NEIGBORS MIGHT THINK THAT ITS A REAL FIREARM AND CALL THE COPS,..... MY QUESTION IS, AM I WORRYING ABOUT NOTHING? I THINK THAT AS LONG THAT I'M CREFUL AND NOT SHOOTING TOWARD HOUSES, THAT IT SHOULD BE FINE, RIGHT?

270Shooter · « **Reply #14 on:** May 28, 2010, 03:06:10 PM »

Just saying, if somebody sees you shooting quail out of season I wouldn't be surprised if they call the game dept. on you.

BIGINNER · « **Reply #15 on:** May 28, 2010, 03:12:26 PM »

YA, I AGREE. BUT, I STILL WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO SHOOT THEM DURING THE SEASON WITH A PELLOT GUN, RIGHT?

270Shooter · « **Reply #16 on:** May 28, 2010, 03:14:09 PM »

Technically no, but I don't think its as bad as shooting them out of season.

bow4elk · « **Reply #17 on:** May 28, 2010, 03:15:30 PM »

The plural is "Quail"

Yeah, you especially shouldn't be shooting them during nesting season.

Austrian Hunter · « **Reply #20 on:** May 28, 2010, 03:34:42 PM »

IS IT 3:30 YET

FC · « **Reply #21 on:** May 28, 2010, 03:47:23 PM »

Just stick the muzzle out the window and shoot them in their little bobbled head, wait a while and then go retrieve them, I suggest cleaning them inside.

I hope I have company in my amazement at the overall tone of this post. California Quail are one of the neatest game birds we have in this state. The encouragement to SSS these during difficult nesting conditions bothers me as a sportsman. This is why we so often get a bad name as hunters when we smirk off comments like some of the ones in this thread.

Leave them alone. Hunt them correctly in hunting season, like a true sportsman.

They do make an air powered shotgun, not sure of specs
, but it shoots a small plastic shot shell. Not even sure of what size shot is available or if you load your own. Come legal season on a legit flushed bird it might be kinda fun to try. Not a very long shot string, but it sure isn't gonna travle very far.

Try a scare crow that should keep the quail out of the garden, or better yet give them some food else where on the property!!

I had a couple Quails

in my yard the other night. Watched them walk around and then leave. Not sure why you would want to poach them...

BIGINNER · « **Reply #28 on:** May 28, 2010, 10:37:15 PM »

I WOULD NEVER SHOOT A QUAIL OUT OF SEASON... OR ILLEGALLY. THATS WHY I STARTED THIS THREAD, (TO FOUND OUT IF THERE IS ANY DIFFERENT RULES ABOUT SHOOTING THEM ON YOUR PROPERTY) SINCE I WOULD BE ILLEGAL TO SHOOT THEM OUT OF SEASON OR WITH A PELLOT GUN, THEN WE WILL FIND ALTERNATIVE MEANS OF THINNING THEM OUT.

We like having them around, My Wife feeds them

now bunnies are a different story garden eating suns-a-guns

Enough said. Topic is closed!

Lee Root, great post and thanks for the reminder. Why in the heck would someone want to "thin out" such a species...?
