When you were a young boy, you likely used airsoft guns and BB guns before you graduated to other guns. You probably also had a pellet gun, because, after all, that's where young outdoorsmen begin. Pellet guns are easy to use, and they also are remarkable easy to use.
As survivalists age, they tend to leave their BB guns behind and focus on larger calibers for hunting and more. It's a skill many survivalists desire to have — using different weapons so that they'll be more than ready for when SHTF.
However, when the collapse takes place, a humble pellet gun will once more become a dependable weapon for many survivalists. For you to provide for your family, you will need to rely on this small-caliber weapon.
But is it really the best idea to put your trust in a pellet gun when you can have a wide variety of powerful weapons instead?
After the break, check out four important reasons you should not give up on your pellet gun. Who knew that in reality, this gun is one of the most practical solutions to helping you deal with a collapse!

Why not a 22 takedown….
I plan on taking my bow for many of the same reasons
Ruger makes one now !!!been thinking about getting one !!!
Excellent post, DHS!!! Mechanical longevity. 94% Quieter than powder propelled projectiles.
Lightweight compact ammunition… and a variety of applications.
Highly accurate… plus some models offer adjustable pressure.
No BG check.. no licence.. no registration.
Many variances: rifle/pistol/revolver
Many modes of operation: CO2/Break Barrel/Stock Pump/Refill Tank/spring action.
Several calibers: 22-.177/32/25/357/50
But my favorite aspect is.. you can MAKE your own ammo: cut nails/wire / lead shot / salt or crushed glass.
If you don’t own one… get one.
Already added one a long time ago.
5000 rounds fit in your pocket and cost 10$, virtually silent, and very accurate. Don’t waste your important ammo on small game! Get a good pellet rifle! Good for everything from small gamebirds to rabbits to even ducks off a pond. With a good suppressed rifle you can pop several ducks before they even know what’s going on
Highly recommend the Black Opps .177 cal. tactical sniper rifle. Comes with adjustable butt stock, scope, and bi-pod. 1250fps
I have a scoped Daisy 1000 that has slain many small critters. The biggest being a raccoon taken with one shot betwixed the eyes. I watched an episode of pigman and he killed a hog with a head shot from a pellet rifle. They definitely have a place.
I have the camo Bear River TPR 1200. Shoots great! Especially with Benjamin hollow points.

I have a Gamo .22 pellet rifle. Thing is deadly on squirrel and rabbits. I can carry a ton of ammo and barely weighs a pound. Straps perfectly onto one of my kayak paddle straps. Highly Recommended.
lol….

Got two of them…
Before anyone across the pond says anything, yes this is aimed at the American market. Aussies, UK, Canada check with local law enforcement concerning what you can/can’t have /use.
quite can kill squrels, rabit, UN.
Pellet gun shooters: there are Facebook pages ment for our community. Do a simple search.
Good looking out, Shawn. A+
Travis, I had this revelation on my run today.
I have one that shoots a special pellet at 1700 FPS! 🙂
Yessir
Check out the air Ordnance SMG fully automatic 22
They have a 50 caliber and a 357 caliber pellet gun
I’ve got 4. 2 basically BB guns. 2 higher end 177 cal
FX Boss and Daystate Air Ranger
truth is my .177 is as powerful as a 22 1400 fps and will take out a dear with proper shot placement …….. i have shot crows at 75 yards and toasted them …… if it was all i had i would use it against a man in the bad type situation
Aimed properly, they can have a deviating effect.
Get a .22 caliber air rifle. They are excellent for survival and can ruin an attackers day too.
ITS TIME FOR TRUMP PEOPLE…….AMERICA WANTS TRUMP…..Make America Safe Again.
How else do you think I keep squirrels out of the roof of my house?
Tony Hasenmueller
I have a 22 cal break barrel pellet gun
Adam Kotulka this is a good little read!
Yea, that’s why I keep stocking up on pellets
Brandon Smith
All those guns do up here is piss off whatever your shooting at
Way ahead of ya! Gamo .22
A pump .22 is as effectI’ve as a .22 rimfire. A simple aluminum mold and an old tin can can be used to remake your used pellets.
Now, they are not as noisy as a powder weapon, but they are not silent. If necessary, an effective muffler can be installed, and it won’t burn out as those on a powder weapon will.
I also suggest a slingshot, of the ‘Wrist Rocket ‘ variety. They are quiet, powerful, and can utilize ant sort of stone, marble, or even golf ball. Requires much more practice, but is cheaper.
I found an air rifle, and a .22 long, made by the same company, that stows in the stock. This makes them, as the man calls them, Survival weapons…
Not in my hands, Dina.
And if I get the dairy to go hog hunting, there is the old trusty .50 Cal sharp, air rifle. It can poke a hole in a 3/4 inch plywood at 100 yards. ( Which is as close as I desire to be around a razorback)
Have 4 of 10 with a scope and hand aBB
That was 1 with the scope
If you surrender your firearms ,you have surrendered,do you think they’ll let you keep anything.Its fine to own a pellet gun but they will in way take the place of the real thing.matter of fact you may want to brush up on your chemictry.
Well it’s a good idea for rabbits, squirrels etc,but what ever you do don’t buy one of those junk norincos,pictured in this add ,getcha,a gamo,anyone of them producing 1250 per second,
I have a 25, three 50’s and a 72.
I have a 177. Love it a lot of fun
my ma said i would nock an eye out lol now seriousy a great idea.
A lot better option than 22lr
Get one? I started with one lol
