Get a squirrel w/ a handgun ....

Got him in that clump of yellow leaved Hickory above the squirrel's shoulder.

Seeing those pix of Todd's & Nastygunz's w/ their hero shots w/ their pistols got me a little jealous. :laf:
That's a High Standard Victor pistol.

Way to go VV. But that shot looked a little far back from the eyeball.

Nice future Mepp's ya got there. I'll have to get out and see if I can get some of our lil red squirrels, I think about three would equal that one.  :innocentwhistle:

That's in the boiler room Ed. Don't that count? :shrug:
I almost didn't post this because it wasn't a head shot. Ya know how squirrels are, never still for long. He moved at the last moment.  :doh2:

That's a 22lr Barry. Don't believe the 22 shot shells would do me much good.  :nono:

We have those little red, Timber Jacks, squirrels here too Todd. They even count on your possession limit. :iroll:  Had one scold me yesterday for the first time. That was a weird sound.  :confused: He took off before I could get a bead on him.  :madd:

Hoping tomorrow to go back w/ my new CZ SxS 12ga.  :eyebrow:
I'm thinking an Imp Cyl in the right barrel & a Full Choke in the left for those tree top lovers. :eyebrow: If I can find my choke tubes for it.  :doh2:

Like I said I would I went out yesterday morning. Got there later than I wanted.  :rolleye:  Wanted to be in the woods @ dark throidy so I could be at the east side of the woods & have the sun at my back & shadow my shotgun.
Shot nothing but Timber Jacks. There's a bunch in there it seems.  :madd:
The first one was shot w/ the left barrel. DRT
Two, later, were running around & I missed the first one w/ the pistol & the second one froze to the tree on my side. Nailed it one handed.  :thumb2:
The third one was kicking nuts from a tree behind me. I watched the antics through my binos then let it have the right barrel.
Really pleasant day in the woods. :biggrin:

Never read the term "Timber Jacks" in relation to a critter before :confused:.  That is a dang fine pic. :yoyo:

Why thank you Barry.
In some states Red Squirrels are a varmint like the Chipmunk.
Let me tell ya there ain't much meat on 'em & it sure ain't worth the effort to skin 'em.  :doh2:

Impressive with the pistol.   :yoyo:
Here's a good link on how to skin one fast.

Good to do it while they're fresh, though.

That was almost to easy to be true.  :holdon:

Went to explore (scout) a new woods today.
Around noon this feller shows up & I get first blood for my CZ 452 w/ a 2-7X Lupy.


And yes Double D I anointed it.  :wink:

Cool black squirell.

I have seen them but never harvested one.
Don't bring shame to our sport.

He died for dipshits too.

Yeah, Slag, that's the first one I've harvested. Mostly they're in town.
They say they're a color phase of the gray squirrel.

It would be cool to get something like this!  :eyebrow:
