I bought this air rifle such a long time ago and I probably need to clean it. Any way I want to start hunting with it and I was wondering if it was strong enough to even kill them.
mines the very top.

If your gun is a Daisy 880 (which is the gun in the picture you linked to), its got right about 7.4-7.6 ft-lbs of muzzle energy. That's more than enough to hunt and kill squirrels (which take 3 ft-lbs of impact energy to kill) and crows (3-5 ft-lbs impact energy to kill) provided you limit yourself to head-shots at close range (20-25 yards, or less).
If your gun is Daisy 105 (which is the specs say is the gun in the top slot of the website), then its got right about .85 ft-lbs of muzzle energy which isn't enough to kill anything. It could wound a squirrel or a crow (maybe, at 5 feet...), but not kill them outright.
Edit:
There's something screwy about that website you linked to. They're using a picture of an Daisy 880 on the section of their site that is describing a Daisy 105. So much for professional quality control on e-commerce sites.Can I hunt crows and squirrels with my air rifle?
Squirrels, no. There fur is too much for a bb going that slow to pass through. Even if it made it to the skin, it won't go through or very deep whatsoever. Mine shoots around 350 and can't pass through the skin at 5 yards.
Crows, yeah, pretty easily. Their feathers aren't very thick and you Will have to hit them in the head. I shoot them all the time, but between how quick the BB drops and how inaccurate they are, my farthest has only been 25 yards. So, i'm pretty sure it's gonna be a fatal shot at about 10 - 20 yards.
having had that ';gun'; i can tell you its way to weak.
if you really want to hunt squirrels and crows get a .22 or 20 gauge. both you can get for around or a little over $100
and can ethically take crow and squirrel. that ';gun'; is more of a can popper, and was never meant for hunting.
Never shot one of those, but I did have a similar little daisy bb gun, and it's taken a few crows. Thing is, I have to pump it 50 times, and I'm not exaggerating that number.
No. if you really need to kill them than i'd save up for a crosman phantom 500 which shoots at 495 fps. usind crosman wadcutters you could easiely kill a squirell and maybe a crow.
dont even try to use yours. that thing shoots less than my airsoft pistol.
sorry no
that looks like a daisy 880. i own one and have taken rabbits and squirrels out to 15yrds or so ! just aim at the temple and it should work well !
yes

theyre all roadkill at the end
Don't worry, I'll shoot enough of them for you too! I can't stand them things and they're in my woods at night, just waiting to walk on my truck with their pathetic paws. I think I'm weeding them down now. That, or the coyotes, he he!

To answer yyour question, it is because a lot of people keep cats as pets.

Are you aloud to hunt rabbits,squirrels,birds,ect. in a residential area.?
i live in a neighborhood and my friends are hunting rabbits,squirrels,birds,ect in peoples backyards with bee-bee guns.(air gun)
1st off- is it legal?
2nd- do bee-bee guns acutely penetrate skin?
3rd- do you have to have a license to kill any animal?
4th-are you even aloud to kill animals on non-hunting grounds?
5th-what are your thoughts on it?
btw-my friends are stupid like that.
Thanks,
Kristin
Are you aloud to hunt rabbits,squirrels,birds,ect. in a residential area.?
1) probably not, there are licenses and such. Hunting and trapping in residential areas is not good.
2) BB guns CAN penetrate skin, otherwise your friends wouldn't use them. Did you mean human skin? Yes.
3) It depends on the DNR, but I think you need one for certain animals- but not others.
4) allowed? Perhaps- private land, for example, and it depends on the county/city/town laws.
5) kill 'em, but you better have a reason other than because you ';could'; such as for food or to keep varmints down.Are you aloud to hunt rabbits,squirrels,birds,ect. in a residential area.?
In most cities it is illegal to discharge a firearm - I think a bb gun counts as a firearm. Yes, bb guns can penetrate the skin. No, you do not have to have a license to kill most animals, but you do need a hunting license in most areas. Yes, you can kill animals on non-hunting grounds. My brothers used to kill small animals - I thought it was gross then, I guess I still think it is gross.
1. Depends on your local laws. In Raleigh, NC there was a story about a guy shooting squirrels in his back yard with rat shot. It was legal.
2. Maybe. Depends on how powerful the gun is and how close the target was. They definitely can.
3. Depends on state and local laws. For vermin generally no.
4. Yes, especially if you own the property.
5. I agree your friends are stupid.
It is not legal to shoot in those areas.
You would need a license if it was for the rabbits and squirrels.
Song birds are protected and illegal to shoot any time any where.
Doing any these things are likely to get them arrested and fined and also get them some very unhappy parents!!!!
The law probably restricts the use of BB guns / Firearms etc.
in the city limits.
There may be hunting seasons for Squirrels %26amp; Birds
in some areas.

If I hunted down Squirrels for fun, how would you judge me?
yes considering it is my summer camp nicknameIf I hunted down Squirrels for fun, how would you judge me?
id be okay with that
if i had to hunt somethang it would be squirrels.If I hunted down Squirrels for fun, how would you judge me?
i wouldnt i 'hunt' magpies for fun
MURDAH!!!!!!!!!!!!
I would say it's kind of unnecessary
nuts what doe you use as your weapon of choice? i seem to use my truck the most for the animal rights acttivests ...not on purpose
I would think that you are an evil horrible person who deserves to be hunted down by vengeful squirrels.
Providing you have taken a hunter training course, a firearms safety course and have passed. Along with understanding how nature and humans co-exist. As well as following your state /provincial Wildlife Regulations and you are hunting in an open season, along with all the necessary Permits needed to hunt squirrels safely as well as not going over your bag limit , then I would approve. If you do not follows these guidelines, then I would label you a poacher.
Other wise safe and prosperous hunting - good luck.
I would think it were cruel of you : (

Who was it that said ';Perry Saturn can hunt rabbits and squirrels at the same time?';
Back in 2000 (I think) on Raw or Smackdown, somebody was feuding with The Radicalz and they made fun of Saturn being cross-eyed. I forget who said that though. I'm guessing it was either Jericho or The Rock.
If you can find a video of it, that would be great.Who was it that said ';Perry Saturn can hunt rabbits and squirrels at the same time?';
it was the rock. he said now on 2 u perry saturn the rock knows u have 1 eye that goes this way and another that goes that way and the rock is just hopin for secound that the eye thats goin that way is looking at the rocks hand going that way so the rock will slap that crooked eye straightWho was it that said ';Perry Saturn can hunt rabbits and squirrels at the same time?';
The Rock, twice (1 on RAW, 1 on SD), mocked Saturn with that one eye going that way and the other eye going the other way but I couldn't find a video where The Rock or Jericho said that line
MOPPIE!
Ha cant remember who sad that. I do remmber Perry Saturn carrying around amop and talking to it though
It was The Rock. I remember that line. I believe he also said that he would hit him so hard, his eyes would be straight.makeup hair

How can I keep squirrels from eating my plastic Easter eggs that I use for my Egg Hunt? Any suggestions? THKs?
Last year they opened them up and ate the candy but left the money. I cant stand squirrels. HELP!!How can I keep squirrels from eating my plastic Easter eggs that I use for my Egg Hunt? Any suggestions? THKs?
will i do not live in the east coast i live in west coast.dont have problems with squirrerls much. but i hope i can help u . i wld buy nuts and put them around the trees %26amp; brushes.hopefully this will help u, if not will happy huntting.How can I keep squirrels from eating my plastic Easter eggs that I use for my Egg Hunt? Any suggestions? THKs?
maybe leave some bird seed or squirrel food out and they will eat that and leave your eggs alone.
Keep the eggs inside
Spray them with Ni-Cd :-D
Get some of nail polish that has the nasty taste (for nailbiters) and put some of that on the outside of the eggs. As long as the kids dont lick the outside of the plastic eggs, it should be okay. The smell of nail polish is a deterrant too.
