Or just when anyone was home; if I hear a noise I don't recognize and look out the window to see an unknown, but obviously not LE person pointing what appears to be a firearm at my occupied house, I just might decide to take my chances with the grand jury.cb1000rider wrote:We have a discussion about what can happen in Texas if criminal mischief had occurred a few hours later in the day.
(OK, maybe not the place I'm currently renting, since the walls are limestone block, and a foot thick, but I'll sure be covering the door with the biggest artillery I can lay hands on from where I'll be laying on the floor. Any regular frame house, I wouldn't count on the walls to be hard cover, and would rather stop the attack.)
ETA; not quite a match, but the still from the video with the kid carrying it stock-forward looks like it has an adjustable cheekpiece and possibly adjustable LOP stock, so not your $40 plastic and sheet metal Daisy. Let's look at some of the $100-$300 air rifles then
Gamo Whisper - this sure looks like it could be a suppressed .22. I've heard .22LRs with suppressors about that size before, using both regular and subsonic ammo but not sure I'd know the difference between it and a high powered air rifle when hearing it unexpectedly over the sound of a TV or stereo.

Stoeger X-20S - looks like a really suppressed SBR. I have no idea what a shot from a .22 with a suppressor that can hold some crazy number of baffles would sound like, but then I'm not sure I wouldn't assume a centerfire when looking at this gun from a distance, either.
