It's mouse season, I'm hunting mieces

[2flhun]

I've been picking up "different" pistols& revolvers recently. A Walther P5, a S&W 627 and these little guys (Mauser .32acp, Beretta .25acp and Astra .22short)

I need something in .22lr now. Someone beat me to the Walther TPHs at Atlantic Guns and United and a Beretta 71.

I'll walk in to something down the road.

Just get a cat.

No ‘small gun’ collection is complete without an original Baby Browning

Good luck

Not as much fun and I already have 2 daughters who ignore me unless they want something and who shed all over the place.

Before I moved I had a pretty bad mouse infestation in the basement. They had gotten into my pantry food and I didn't realize it until the problem had gotten out of hand. I put out poison and traps like normal and I caught several. One night I was working at my reloading bench and a mouse ran across the top of the bench right in front of me. I turned off most of the lights and sat on my stool with my AR-15 airsoft rifle and sure enough after a few minutes of being really still I could hear them moving around. I ended up shooting and killing six or seven that night. It was actually a lot of fun.

I think I ended up trapping or shooting close to 30 mice in just a couple of weeks.

A “mouse gun” is a nickname for a very small handgun

Definitely on the list. Last one that I saw was at the "old" Atlantic Guns location in Rockville. Looking at a few on GB, prefer to spend my $$ locally after I see it in person.

Sea Monkey purchase in the '70s taught me a valuable lesson.

That Astra looks like a novelty cig lighter.

Love it!

Man, ain't that the truth. Being in that same situation, I feel for you.

That sounds like an infestation. You might want to get a professional out there.

Ahhh, Artemia salina. One of the greatest marketing campaigns of all time.

Very well made, solid, feels good in "the" hand

... or the FN Browning 1905 Vest Pocket from whence the Baby came. The 1905 is still reasonable pricewise, a nice one might run $400-500. Ironically an equal condition Baby seems to run a couple hundred higher.

A member had one or the other for sale on here for a while. I mulled that purchase over for too long.

I believe I still have an unfired Baby Browning in one of my safes, I’ll take a look and PM you if it’s available. I haven’t looked at it in the 33 years I’ve been in this house, so I doubt I need it. LOL

Good to go. Thank you

My father taught me how to shoot mice in the living room with a .22 RF 65 or 70 years ago but that is another story. I have never used anything larger than .177 pellet in the house personally.

I sold it...not my problem any longer

Check out the pics in the OP's post. Beretta Bobcat in .25acp and .22LR will fit in the palm of your hand depending on the size of your hand.

I miss those lighters. I had several over the years and I guess I tossed them when I quit smoking. They were cool.
