Title: Has your pup ever spoken in anger?
Post by: nase on June 19, 2010, 08:24:13 PM: Just curious, and it's probably on my mind because I actually came close to drawing mine last week. Anybody ever have to draw your Rohrbaugh? Use it? How did it handle in the heat of the moment?

While the question is intriguing, the legal issues inherently involved in any affirmative answers may limit the number of responses posted to this public forum.

Stay safe out there.

No, just speculation regarding the limited response on a potentially "explosive" issue (pardon the pun ;D ).

I stopped the truck and started to slowly creep up on him. He stood perfectly still frozen like I could not see him. I got within 15yrds aimed to take a shot but before I could he dove in his hole. Mad at myself for not being quicker I walked up to the hole and stood over it when to my surprise he poked his head out and I shot him dead. !rst whistlepig I ever killed with a Farmingdale R9,now owned by a fellow forum member. ::)

Post by: P7Enigma on June 21, 2010, 05:16:36 PM: At our compound the score is as follows:

ENIGMA - 114

Armadillos - 0

Squirrels - 0

Possums - 0

Raccoons - 0

Device(s) mostly used are P7K3 (canned) or a Mk23 with LAM and KA or BT can.

The armadillos being the worst vermin of all by tearing up everything in the yard to include wifeys flower beds. The other varmints tear up stuff in general. Don't like doing it but trapping and removal is just to time consumimg as it is a never ending battle due to living in the middle of nowhere.

On a better note: the wild turkey run rampant and there was a fawn nursing its mother about 20 yards outside our bay window just this past weekend. Would have taken a pic but couldn't find the bloody camera.
