I wonder if it would be very good to cross an air rifle with a
Paslode cordless nailer. Use an air/fuel mixture to propel a pellet
instead of pumping air. Seems like a winner if you could get
sufficient velocity that way. If my understanding is correct, the
military propels artillery that way.

A great idea, but why not go the other way and fire nails. That will
pin the critters to the ground until they can be harvested and disposed
of.


Except that it would not 'pin them to the ground'.
