Bird Watching Airgun Style - Episode 1 [Hunting]

Pardon my tongue-in-cheek commentary. I needed to cut loose a bit after all the "serious" gun reviews I had been doing for my other channel (AirgunReview). I'm a satirist by nature, and it is usually a bit of a chore for me to quell my zest for controversy.

This video helped me "recharge my batteries". And hell, maybe you even liked it. Worse yet, maybe it was educational. ;)

Grackles protected? Where?

[EdgunUSA]

@MrMelon049 I know it sounds strange - because the bird is seemingly shot by every kid with a bb gun. But, the truth is that grackles are a protected migratory bird. HOWEVER, it is completely LEGAL to shoot them if they are causing damage to property or agriculture. And, since this is so often the case, it is legal to shoot them under those circumstances. I have had to shoot grackles in the past, but the ones in this video were not causing any known damage.

I like to shoot the stick the bird is standing on. I know its mean, but its more fun sometimes to scare the crap out of the bird than to actually kill it.

@brainards11 I see your reasoning. I have a '79 F-150 Ranger Lariat.

[brainards11]

@Fordfanforlife777 I stated it because...the guy is a damn good marksman. He uses math and physics and nails his target under extreme conditions. I say...more power to him. BTW, I do appreciate the fact that you like Fords. I own a F150 and love it.

[Fordfanforlife777]

@brainards11 Never said that. To you I said "Wow. Just wow."

[brainards11]

@Fordfanforlife777 ignorant comment?  Where do you get off that I'm ignorant...
