It definitely looks like fun.
But the return serve could be trouble.

Most folks without airgun experience have no idea how powerful they can be.
Even a low powered .177 pistol can be surprisingly effective.
Thanks for the video.
Very enlightening, for sure.

Unless you were using a very tight choke with the regular shotgun rounds, your hanging friend would probably not thank you much.
But the slug round did the trick.
Great shot!
Although better results might be had with a mad sword charge from horseback.
Like Alexander.

I was surprised there were no volunteers to hang from the rope.

I volunteer my mother in law.

It "sounds" like using a bottle for a silencer rates much like using an oil filter for one on a revolver.
Proof again that movies are mostly fiction.
Thanks again for another informative and entertaining video.

Good shooting.
Very clever, indeed.
Just the thing for a post apocalyptic world.
But always remember, when using a blow gun - never inhale.

Nice shot!
That's a tough one with a rifle, let alone a smooth bore.
Good job.
But those first few misses weren't the fault of the gun.
And obviously not the fault of the shooter.
It was probably that your glasses needed cleaning.
Look forward to your next video.

That's one way to get into a locked car.
But the trade in value has been much reduced.
And hide the gun before the cops show up.
