ok. You can shoot me with your BB gun.

I've been shot in the back with a BB gun. It hurts like hell. Thought it was a wasp or
hornet since I was using a compactor to settle the ground for my garage, er workshop.

Turned off the compactor, walked into the house and asked my wife what does my back look
like, I think I've been stung. She said you have been shot, round hole in your tee shirt,
then she ran to the front door and saw the kids as they ran away.

Fast forward a number of years, the shooter is on his way to prison for assault.

I have a decent pneumatic gun, it shoots .22 size (IIRC) pellets at
1,000 fps. I once shot four squirrels with five shots, of whom three
died immediately and one died some time afterwards under the shed.

Those three tasted rather bad. I would rather eat chicken.
