Hey guys, I've been looking into a new duck gun for next season, I've been carving up a few decoys and hope to have enough ready to hunt with by next november or december. Anyway I was thinking what better way to start off a new season than with a brand new shotgun to go with my new decoys. With the new decoys I know I will be able to keep the shots close........Like really 5yards in your face close...........so I was thinking of going with this gun http://airgunblast.com/ it says it shoots #9 but i have a couple of boxes of those old #7 steel supremes from crappy tire so I was just gonna open up a few of them to use. I'd really like to hear what you knowledgeable duck hunters think....It says a 12" pattern at 10 yards so it should be a 6" at 5 yards in your face right???

A 6" pattern should demolish ducks on contact.

I say strap it to the front of the boat and punt into a flock of scoters. Blast away like market gunning days hahaha


If theyre too close I wonder about those pistol rounds that have birdshot packed into them. Need that sort of thing for quick flight Harlies on the salt.

Hey Kyle with your skills you should be able to build a punt air gun from a peice of 2" pipe and an ols 100 lb propane bottle youd only get a few shote but with a "gauge" like that youd only need a couple lol

I would only support this gun idea if you promise to retrieve all of your dead birds with multiple kinds of crank baits and a spinning rod.
