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.
Good one VV and how does that gun shoot the shot shells :shrug:. I wish we could post pics of hand gun critters :argh:.
Nice work pardner.
I see why he was hiding in THAT tree. :eyebrownod:
Way to go VV. But that shot looked a little far back from the eyeball.
"V"
I'm kinda getting addicted to that lil' portable smoke pole that Nasty turned me on too. ;yes;
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.

or a week old. :puke:
That was almost to easy to be true. :holdon:
But I'll try it at least twice. First & last time is twice; right? :laf:
Sounds like fun!!!!! I shot a few on Sat. before I got hurt on Sunday...... But I cheated and used the 22 :laf:
Dang fine story and guns :yoyo:...that Victor is a real beauty..I think Im gunna take mine out for some squirreling now !...I have a double shoulder holster...I put a .22 pistol in one holster and a .410 pistol in the other holster...perfect for squirrel hunting...ground shots I pull the .22, tree shots I haul out the .410
Pretty dang good shooting with iron sights..they dont sit still for long :yoyo:
Here we have tons of the red pine squirrels...theres no seaosn on em you can hunt em year round as long as you have a hunting license...they give you an excuse to hunt year round if you want to.

Cool black squirell.
I have seen them but never harvested one.
Good shooting!!
Jim
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:
