Im 15 years old, and i live in London Ontario. ive been blastin tree rats for about a year now, and im looking into a cheap springer to take em' squirrels out to about 20-25 yards, do you think a Beeman GH500 would do the trick?

p.s, i do not have my PAL

thanks- Allan

Why kill squirrels from 20-25 yards .... i kill ravens from 60-64 yards - have more fun

Not sure about Bulgaria, but in many (most?) places in Canada, ravens are protected.

Allan specified that he doesn't have a PAL, which means that in Canada he can only get (in theory

) guns that shoot under 500fps. Most of our non-PAL rated guns would have trouble with 60-64 yards.

but they are 199 at Can tire... that a bit pricy.. what do they cost at wallmart?

lotsofsquirrels · #12 Post by **lotsofsquirrels** » Mon Feb 27, 2006 7:04 pm

go to lebaron!!!! 119.00 for a quest 500. i beleive walmart is a bit cheaper though i am not sure....... but i think its the best way to go. isn't a gh500 plastic? well mostly platic? but yah, quest does sound good to me. id like to get one but have no money

is there a lebaron in london ontario?

Allan · #13 Post by **Allan** » Mon Feb 27, 2006 7:08 pm

lol, nope, no lebaron in london... i dont think... im pretty sure there isnt. ill check walmart for the quest, then if its not that cheap there, ill get a beeman 1040 at can tire.

ill tell you if i go check it out tomorrow.
