If you plan on meeting with him again be sure you have company.

I hadn't thought about meeting him again but he does still owe me the butt for the pistol, owner's manual, and degas tool.   If he telling the truth about moving I should do something tonight

He is saying all the right stuff.  Hope he does as he says. Anyone feel like being backup in case I'm being played? IF we meet tonight.  I suspect we may have some snipers in this group lol.     Kaneohe side.

Here are the texts that have happened since last update. At home now so was able to screen shot all of them into one picture.

I have a great idea, have him meet with you at the Kaneohe police or Fire station, Kaneohe Shopping center.

That is a great idea.  Now if he'd just contact me to set a time.

I stripped the barrel and rolled it across a thick pane of glass.  It was close to very straight but it wasn't perfect.  Can we expect perfect  from an OEM barrel?

I bought an blow gun way back in the beginning.  After testing on a dazed rat and seeing how long it lived with 5-6 dart in it (some all the way through) I decided it wasn't humane enough.  This was with the "broad tip" darts too.

Nailed one tonight with the fusion. Night isn't over yet =)

Body Count:
Traps: 67  - no change since I haven't set them in 3 weeks
Sniped: 19 - last couple night I did very little rat hunting due to hunting parts on the computer.

******

Texted the guy today about 1 asking if we'd be able to meet before he left (if he's really going).  HE texted back "yea, I'll text you 5:30-6:00"  Unsurprisingly I have not heard from him since.

*******

Last night I ordered a Tim Hill's extended marauder shroud that comes with 11 baffles.  Spent 2-3 hours looking for a quality aftermarket barrel but couldn't find one in stock anywhere.  This morning I called up Crosman and ordered a barrel, shroud plug, and degassing tool. Already have a o-ring set on the way.  It should be here next Wednesday/Thursday. Everything else will be here before then. I asked the guy at crosman if they normally have the .25 barrels in stock.   He said he has about 500 in the warehouse right now.

It may be raining but the rats are still playing.  edit: err... were playing.

It seems like most of the rats I kill (that I can check) are males.

every 2-3 months a female mice/rat will produce a litter of 6-8.
but if you get ride of the rats the roach population will explode.

and they can start breeding at 5 weeks old.

not much chance of eliminating the rat population.  maybe keep it in check.

Get some psychological help.

Posting all the rats you kill is not healthy.
Your number one Option for Personal Security is a lifelong commitment to avoidance, deterrence, and de-escalation.

Someday someone may kill you with your own gun, but they should have to beat you to death with it because it is empty.

Maybe you are right. But is this any worse than me sitting outside shooting ugly lizards off the cement wall?

On the other hand, i don't go probing between the lizard legs looking for a teeny weeny.
