Thread: Springer Airguns & Pigs

I don't think they are wrong about their ability. The one I got for my 10th birthday which would, new, shoot through both sides of a baked beans can and deal death to any sparrow or blackbird, was unlikely to kill a pig but yes, could cause a significant injury, like loss of an eye. What a great learning rifle for a kid tho!! that's what I would hate to see stopped. Not sure any 10 yr old should be wandering around their urban back yard with a 22 calibre Springer, or even a .177, at the higher velocities they are now available at - if of course they had the strength to crank them. PCPs are already well controlled I believe.
