    Maybe a subsonic .22 Short with its lighter bullet is safer for some furtive urban pest control. Main thing either way, don't be seen, and don't miss.

    Arms Act 1983 extract - they can do you over at a very low threshold:

    48 Discharging firearm, airgun, pistol, or restricted weapon in or near dwellinghouse or public place
    Every person commits an offence and is liable on conviction to imprisonment for a term not exceeding 3 months or to a fine not exceeding $3,000 or to both who, without reasonable cause, discharges a firearm, airgun, pistol, or restricted weapon in or near—
    (a) a dwellinghouse; or
    (b) a public place,—
    so as to endanger property or to endanger, annoy, or frighten any person.


    Note the word ANY person - including any mad hysterical nutter. You still carry the can.
