Did you look at where this guy lives? House is in a populated area with homes all around. This guy must have rocks for brains to crank off a round there. I’d use a nice .177cal Gamo air rifle, not quite as loud and will get the job done.
He shouldn’t have been shooting in a populated area and he deserves to be prosecuted for it, but they charged him with the assault weapon thing too. He’s done the gun owners of CT a favor if the state pursues the assault weapon charges. The only way to get the thing declared unconstitutional is for a case to make it to the USSC. This may be the one.
Yer correct, anything bigger than a b.b. gun is over kill. I shoot garden destroying rabbits from my patio with a b.b. gun, I would not consider anything bigger.
That'll get you arrested just as quick in many places including where I am (out west in a small town).
