[QUOTE="nelson, post: 77691, member: 4578"] Hey another one for ya A couple of winters ago I was approached by the mother of a couple of kids I was coaching in air pistol. The oldest boy had been bugging mom and dad non stop for months for his own air rifle. This boy wa obsessed with the idea and had managed to save up enough money to get just about any break open air rifle available locally. So I phoned a friend of mine who had a nice rws air rifle for sale that had the stock modified for a shooter of smaller stature. The boy bought the rifle for a song and I helped him sight it in and got him a good supply of pellets. After much instruction and practice the boy was able to hit anything he tried for up to 30 yards. Know living on a farm there was a unlimited supply of sparrows and such for him to pick off. About 2 months later I got a phone call from the mother who proceeded to scream and yell about this rifle being to powerfull and how the son had been killing innocent little birds and mice. Turns out he had been feeding the riches of his afternoon hunts to his family cats and the mother had caught him and was horrified that this air rifle had enough power to off a sparrow? What the hell else was this thing for I mean the kid wanted to go hunting I guess the mom thought he would just scare the birds!! Any way she took the rifle away and the boy wasn't allowed to come to the range anymore to shoot our dangerous air guns [/QUOTE]
