Air Rifles


I'm really intrigued by Ken's post on the GP forum about air rifle hunting. It seems an easier alternative to big game hunting as a means to provide protein for the table. Easier meaning not having to use a shotgun or rifle. Does anyone know the specifics on air rifle ownership and hunting?

Thanks

Arr Johnny Larue,

Ken here, a.k.a. (said in a heavily-accented deep male voice) DeepRiverJim.

I spend 5% of me time up here in the backwoods translatin' the ol' nihongo. Workin' on translatin' this air rifle GUN LICENSE and HUNTING LICENSEstuff right now! See the LICENSE section. I'll be sure to post me work later.

Also, for a bunch of Air Rifle related links check out Ken's reply to KirinClassic's Crow conundrum post over at the (FARMING & LAND thread).

Ken, uh Jim,

Thanks for the links, sorry I missed em on the farming thread. I give you a lot of credit for translating something like that. If you can translate that you can make some coin at it!

Hey JohnE,

Got the book(s)! Wow, what a suprise! Thanks.

Here's a nice list of air rifles. I always called em' pellet guns growing up, but air rifles is cool I guess.
