When you jumped there was no camera un the float.
I am from Greece….And there is no limitation of the caliber of an airgun …..and with no licence to own one air fifle…..!!!!!
BUT……………Here in Greece the fucking great minds….!!!!!! Forbid the scopes and the silencers….hahahahahaahahahahahahahahha…..!!!!
And ONLY if you are a member of a shooting Club you will be able to shot ONLY paper targets…..Nothing else…
And of course all that is FOR
tax collection….!!!!!! THEY CARE ฮฮLY TO TAKE OUR MONEY…..BECAUSE GREECE IS THE NO1 COUNTRY WITH
THE MOST PAINFULL TAXES……
No, I’ll stick with my .25 cal at 1023fps and hit where I wanna
Lmao. Great video. DAVID UK
So is it just a US thing where you can shoot a rabbit with an AK? /s
Great vid
Very cool video! But where are the German rifles?? Think they will have some arguments for you ๐
Best regards from Germany!!

Well said. I was thinking this today reading a Facebook post.
Yes we say garage man get with it. But I feel sorry for shooters from across the pond and there draconian gun laws.We give no breaks.๐ฌ๐ we cant help brits have all these frivolous state government and local rules. When to shoot , canโt shoot this or that. Poor bunnies flop a little extra here big deal. No well get a .17 Mgr no more rabbit flops!
In Canada itโs 4.2 footpounds

My paradise was Lake Hubert, Nisswa Mn. Then I moved to Dixie.
Size doesnโt matter
It’s not only about the damn headshot. At certain angles a headshot is not quick enough. Especially when it exits and doesn’t ricochet around the brain.
Your video’s r fickn hilarious
I WAS WATCHING SOME LIMEY IN ENGLAND AIMING AT A SQUIRREL WITH HIS BB GUN AND I GOT OLD ENOUGH FOR SOCIAL SECURITY BEFORE HE PULLED THE TRIGGER. I BEE A WILD AMERICAN INDIAN, I LEARNED TO SHOOT WHEN I WAS 4. I GOT MY FIRST 22 RIFLE WHEN I WAS 5 AND I WAS A VARMINT HUNTER EMPLOYED ON A 5000 ACRE CATTLE RANCH WHEN I WAS 6. GOT MY FIRST PHEASANT WHEN I WAS 8 AND MY FIRST DEER WHEN I WAS 12. I HAVE TAKEN MORE DEER ON THE RESERVATION WITH A 22 PISTOL THAN MOST HUNTERS HAVE EVER SEEN. MY DAD’S BEST FRIEND IN THE U.S. ARMY WAS A GERMAN SNIPER IN THE WAR AGAINST ENGLAND AND HE TAUGHT ME THE FINE ART OF SNIPING. WHEN I WAS IN THE AIR FORCE I TAUGHT THE OLYMPIC TEAM HOW TO HIT THINGS. I BET I HAVE SHOT MORE BULLETS IN MY LIFE TIME THAN YOU CAN STACK IN A RAIL ROAD CAR. BUT I MANUFACTURE NEARLY ALL MY OWN AMMO SO IT ISN’T EXPENSIVE, ABOUT 2 CENTS PER ROUND FOR A 44 MAGNUM. AMERICANS HAVE FREEDOM AND LIMEYS ARE SLAVES. BUILD YOUR OWN GUNS AND BOWS AND GET OFF YOUR KNEES TO THE QUEEN…. AND BE SURE TO WEAR YOUR BURKA IF YOU GO OUTSIDE.
who else notices that uk flag colour is in usa flag?
While i love the 2nd amendment and wish we in England had it, the air rifle has made me a way better shot than had i just gone to real stuff, when in the states i found i could hit everything, because an air rifle teaches you just about everything you need to know!! You have to be very good to shoot a 1.77 or a 2.2 pelet rifle and hit the target! Great video!
I would love to see you do a video shooting feral cats
It has long been argued, and I agree, that non-fac hunters are better hunters in the short to mid range hunting game…say to 50 meters.
FAC hunters are better at the long range game due to their equipment
You think you guys got problems – here in Australia Air Rifles are just about unheard of and air pistols are illegal – that’s it – (in fact any pistol is illegal and I’d get arrested and maybe locked-up if I went and bought as much as a toy replica pistol). Pistols of any kind cannot be purchased in Australia. (OK some people like farmers and club-members and serious hunters are allowed real big guns which fire real bullets and shotguns too but no-one except the cops have hand guns and those big real guns are heavily regulated).
As an ex-Brit who’s lived without firearms first in the UK and now Aus I’ve come to think of them as an unnecessary item – but I’m not anti-gun.
I agree with you about the Wolverine – what a work of art – if you can afford one.
But your video is dated 2014
Now it’s 2018 – talk about power! – what about the big-bore Texans.
Whew!
Here in Northern Ireland (UK) we need a firearm certificate till own any air gun over 1 joule which is 0.738 foot pounds, because of this licence owners usually gets the 30+ foot pound air rifles
Hey how do you fill the air in your pcp air guns?
Stop it at 6:18 good illustration of destructiveness. ๐
You are right in both comments its just our lousy uk gov on our 12 flb so shots have to be 100% lights out shot placement is critical
great video fella
we have lots of freaking oil if people ie you know who will let us use. it just saying
wtf is wrong with u dude?????
Beautiful air gun. Love the furniture on it.
It passed through both rabbits I can see it in the background on the first rabbit and hear it on the second
A good example for demonstration would be shooting water for splash effect!!
I just don’t like that you are blaming hunters for that and not Government
I love u Ted ur one of my favorite YouTubers and this was posted a while ago but I’m known for a good shot so idk if that is it but I’m dropping rabbits with one shot with a crosman pumpmaster 776
I’m from the US, and I did know the EU air was restricted. I did NOT realize to what degree. Kinda’ like comparing my comparing my .177 springer to a .30 cal. PCP. I learned a long, L-O-N-G time ago that low power shooting requires a lot more ability/skill/craft than heavy fire power and high grade optics. Yes, I know this video is 4 years old…
Ted you are so spot on.
i may have laughed a bit too hard at 5:40
UK people cannot even carry a knife! LOL. They live on totalitarian regime. They even created focus of crime with the massive immigration of muslims. London is almost a no-go zone. That include others country from Europe. Pathetic. RIP europe.
Queens fart?…..
Hey Ted, thanks for all your videos. You inspired me to get into air guns. I bought an fx wildcat mk2 and put the x liner in it. It’s crazy accurate. Also, after seeing your vid on the northern flicker I put out a feeder to try and help them out. Within weeks we had a Male come regularly and just the other day a female has showed up. I built them a house so just waiting to see if they take it. Is there a way to email you? Thanks for everything!
Iโm English your right chest shots are fine especially with 35ft lb upwards you have excellent laws that allow that ๐
What is wrong with u they did nothing to you u are sitting here posting all this shit on YouTube killing animals for ur own entertainment while Iโm sitting here crying that shit is not funny itโs cruel if u are gonna kill a rat u do it if they are infesting around ur home or in your home u donโt go somewhere where they are in there own home and kill them like how would u feel if u got shot or ur friend got shot even in heaven u would still hurt wtf is wrong with u .
Can in Malaysia bro…
I believe hydrostatic shock is what you’re referring to.
Absolutely spot on. I would love to shoot in America. Great videos keep them coming ๐ฌ๐ง๐บ๐ธ
In the uk if someone breaks into your house in the middle of the night and pulls a knife and you shoot them you go straight to prison ahahaa proud to b british
Says that Americans should go and get a 12 pound gun,
Americans: all ready done
I really need to get an air rifle lol
Those annoying Woodchucks in my backyard are damaging my lawn ๐
Well… You lucky guys… In germany we are limited to 5.5 Foot Pounds or 7.5 Joules and any hunting with any other that a rifle, used by a certified hunter at its payed area (from โฌ1100 a year) is prohibited… You lucky guys ๐
Look again Ted! The pellet exited the first rabbit. Look behind it in the pine needles!
Great video, even 4 years on, same applies. And we still get the Trollz.
