CQC Trash Panda Assault!

[Privateer]

My neighbors have an unusal situation that they called on me for.
They are a bit older then me and not in good health so I do what I can to help them out. Like drag branches out of thier yard, trim the hedges, etc.
Today they asked me to get rid of a TP in the ceiling above thier living room. That's a very small space to move around in as it's maybe 3-4 foot at the highest spot.
Roof trusses on a 2 foot center, and a single 2X4 Cat walk! Plus it's got insulation layed up there.
I looked through the opening into the area and knew I needed Special Weapons and Tactics! So I put together my CQC Max Air .25
Barska Red Dot and UTG Flash light both with fresh batteries. The UTG has the remote switch so I'll only use that when I reach the AO at the far end of the space.
I'm loaded with the JSB MKII 33.95 and the semi auto function might just be handy!

The assault is planned for tommorow. I'll climb through a 2x2 opening into the space then start the careful walk down the 2X4 roughly 30 foot or so.
THIS should be a VERY interesting Hunt!
Does Mr. Panda survive? Or does the Sandman put him to sleep?
I'll let y'all know how it turns out tomorrow.

Take a roll of flex tape with ya.

You know, semi auto .25 in an attic.....

You seriously need to GoPro this and narrate it like Mutual of Omahas Wild Kingdom.

We see the trash pandas hair bristle as it prepares to char...Blap Blap Blap Blap Ping........
A single beam of light illuminates a twitching grasping claw....... cut scene.

Wish I had a GoPro for this!
I'm hoping to get a good line on the TP to do a one shot one kill.
Gonna try to get his head inline with the body so pass through is eliminated by it's body.
I've done that several times before but not in such a limited and confined space!

 

[Ranchibi]

Good luck and you are a kind person for helping your elderly neighbors!

 

[Chuck-in-Ohio]

Lining it up will be easy peasy, cause you can bet that dude is gonna be facing you straight on once it gets a view.
It's gonna puff up like a balloon and be all surly acting.

A MKll to the melon will take the starch out of him.

Oh semi auto tap tap for a nap nap

You should rattle it’s cage for a couple of days by putting an iPad up there with some of the Leshiy backyard bully videos on loop.

Good luck I'm sure you're aware of doing a headshots going to be a bloody mess after he starts doing the death dance spewing blood everywhere. I'm a little bit of a chicken and would be worried that it may be a mother coon and I corner it and would come after me.

It will be. They're looking for places to drop their litters. Attics and walls are commonly used. OP should be looking for the point of entry. They'll often tear a hole in roofing to gain access to the attic space.

We did check the property and I gave the neighbors a sheet of OSB cut to fit a broken window.
I cut it to size and we screwed it to the outside frame of that window for a quick fix.
They did place a Live trap up there yesterday so We'll see if that works probably sometime today.
I set a live trap outside also but that is empty as I can see it from my Kitchen door.
I have put down several We caught in the traps over the years. And dropped many more creeping around here!
(I'm the neighbor that Panda whacks in this area of our small Village.)
Even have one of them looking at an Air Gun option to use on them when he gets them in a live trap!

I did warn them about that. But it's already done $500 damages to the duct work up there so they just want it gone!!
Also warned them about possible pass through damages. No one else is willing to help them so I'm glad to.
The 33's are running at 760 or so FPS. My Max Air does not have the power adjuster or I'd turn it down.

 

[Chuck-in-Ohio]

You are good at that energy level for a clean kill.
If you get shot placement like you described earlier, no worries at all.

I am the Panda Popper here in my little rural community as well.
Destructive little bastages.

@Privateer It’s as good as dead with a brain shot using that grain weight at the stated velocity. Like someone else stated, it’s likely to resemble a bloodbath. I hope it’s not a fighter when it realizes you’re up there with it. Shoot ‘em good. I’m not familiar with that gun. Who makes it?

 

[Privateer]

It's an Evanix. It started life as a .177, went through several hands and ended up as a .25
Some sloppy work caused it to go FULL AUTO at times. I traded a .30 Evanix RS Mini Carbine for it.
Had it sent from Hawaii to a friend in Florida to correct the issues.
It's been perfect every since! Holds air forever and only goes full auto if I drop the air pressure to low.
All the Max Airs will do that so you need to know when to refill.
I plan a Huma Reg and cutting the barrel/shroud down 3 inches yet.

Haha I remember that show, have Marlin Perkins narrate in the background.

If it spews blood everywhere, the insulation will absorb it. Just collect yer dead soes it don't go smellin up da joint!

This is very cool, can't wait to see what you end up doing. Although I would turn the power way down in such close quarters, even at low power pellets will punch right through drywall. Also second the baiting and/or trap approach but not as interesting.
