I'm gonna hunt with my pistol next year, at least it's reliable.
Hunting with a pistol is more difficult, but it is fun as hell. I actually low crawled some rabbits last year and popped up on them. No, I didn't get head shots. That is too hard for me while shooting at a startled rabbit. but, I put them down and into a pot.
I've hunted with mine before, it's a MkII Slabside and shoots like a dream. I've been thinking about scoping it and hunting with it anyway.
