Rat with hearing problems!!!

[JOHNNY QUEST]

after being completly shut down for 7 days the need was intence..  All of the dove were just testing my paitence and I know they are off limits with my pellet gun.. Dove season is in full swing here and the weather and the recent disater from Ike. Has had me stoved in the house..
 I needed satisfaction,BAD!!!!  Karma is wierd, I didn't shoot the Mrs. preaty litttle yard doves and I was awarded a daytime rat..  
 I have to admit that I was standing in the window biteing my lip with the full flock of whitewing eating the feed...

 Thats when the little furry bastage stuck his head out the hole in the deck.  You guys know I keep a loaded [ not cocked ] Webly on the shelf beside the sink..

 I cranked out the window handle and he ran in the hole, that was my moment to cock the pistol.  I knew that the generator had kept them hungry for the last few days , so he would be back!!!!  Sure enough there came his little head out the hole,  I didn't even turn on the lazer, just put the sights on his head and hit the trigger...
 I knew it was all over for his little arse when his head hit the other side of the hole like a bowling ball just hit it..
 .22 in the ear
   BLISSFULLY EUPHORIC NOW!!!!

 Jay they don't offer them anymore. It is made by webly and scott and the closest thing to it now is the Hurricane offered.. Its A GOOD GUN ,BUT NOT A TEMPEST.... This gun is over 15 years old..

I guess you need to keep practicing. You were .00025" off to the right. Was the wind blowing???

 I did have a stiff cross breeze, I should have compensated for it in the split second i had to shoot.  I hate gettin old and sloww.....

[JOHNNY QUEST]

I think the "Hurricane" is not made in England anymore....If I'm correct. I should've picked up a Tempest or Hurricane I saw about 3 -4 years ago (Back then the ones still on the market were from England)....but then I was not back into airguns.

Excellent shot into the ear on that mouse. But next time use a Q-Tip to clean out his ear....not a pellet. OK?

I have a Hurricane in .22  I bought back in 1981, still in the original box.
Still cocks & shoots just the way it did on day 1.
Maybe the barrel could do with a re-blue, but after 27 years service a bit of ware & tear is to be expected.

[tinbender]

I ask sincerely sir,

Did he have a collar on before you shot him?  Fluffyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!
