- The Edgun Leshiy 9 mm versus the winged menace!
An overkill for sky rats indeed, but as requested by you, my viewers, here's a video showing the effect of a high-powered PCP airgun on feral pigeons.
The birds are pests at farms and granaries, causing all sorts of sanitary issues and losses to the farmers and owners.

Even the little kittens know when the food delivery man is here
They do, Travis, yes, thanks, mate 🙂
Good shooting I'm surprised there are no vegans bitching like they always do 😂 thank fk for that and am I the only one that found the video satisfying?
There are always those who complain about what we do, buddy 🙂 The important thing to me is there are guys like you who enjoy the content and even find it satisfying 🙂 Thank you 🤝
Nice to see a gull get whacked, it's illegal to shoot them in the States. The 9 is an absolute beast when it comes to pigeons. Good job.
And UK. Crazy Coz the inland ones exist in vast numbers are are a right nuisance
Thanks a mil, James, and I would never do anything like that in the States. I know about that migratory bird act that protects them.
@@captainboing it's really insane, those birds pose a threat in many levels and are a nuisance.
The red/yellow birds are called Stieglitz in Germany. Goldfinch I think that's the right translation!? 🤔
Yes, brother, you're spot on 🙂 Thank you for watching and for the explanation 👍
Your 9 mm pallets are an instant off switch for the sky-rats. Excellent shooting, as always.
Thank you, friend 🙂 Those things hit like a hammer and I start wondering what the 9 mm Hades would do to a sky rat... 😉
Enjoy your videos a lot young man - keep up the good work. Stay well bro
Thank you, Sir, you make me feel much younger than I actually am 😄
I think the 9mm isn’t too big for a pigeon. In fact it’s more humane. They go down faster, no flopping around. The expense of the slugs in negligible as far as price goes compared to center fire ammo. Raise up the foot lbs and see what havoc they cause those jackals!
You do have the best videos on TH-cam. Many people can hardly wait for you to make more. For me, I just want one everyday! Cheers!
Well said. A heavy pellet is better to put the lights out instaquick on the pests, and he's also feeding the natural predators of those bastards. Balance in a nutshell.
Thank you for the nice comments, boys 🙂 I'll have to put the Leshiy 9 mm to good use again soon.
Thanks for giving me so much credit, Randal, it really means a lot, mate 🙂🤝
those kittens just made a good memory for a food source, look for a guy with a rifle, maybe food will drop for me
I kinda hope they developed a taste for pigeons and will start hunting them themselves 😉
I love cats! Your videos of these wild kittens are precious! Go in peace my brother!
Thanks again, Dave, more will come soon 🙂 I'm a cat person myself.
Another great video. Thanks for all your hard working putting these together to take us along on your adventures. My wife starting shooting with me because of your videos. She got her first sky rats last week and now she is hooked.
That's just awesome, David 🙂 Turn the sport into a family activity, a bonding experience helping marriage. Gotta try the same with mine 😄 Thanks, bud 🤝
I'm from Russia, I like your work!
And I'm very grateful, friend, thank you and enjoy the videos 🙂🤝 Спасибо!
Я тоже фром раша, жаль у нас девятка вне закона, по голубям-то😂
Уверяю вас, это самая смешная вещь на свете, я делаю это ради удовольствия😂
Да понимает он по русски, в одном из видио попали в кадр машины с российскими номерами 😅 и акцент славянский ❤
Years ago , I was in a crew installing groundwater treatment for a closed chemical plant. And the pigeons and their guano were thick😅. I subcontracted with the company to get rid of them . I found an old canal on the property full of turtles. Ez clean up.
And how did you dispatch the pigeons 😉
WOW!, Alex, that Beast makes my .22 sub -12fp, look like a pea-shooter. Excellent shooting , by the way. P.S., the wife is more or less recovered from her foot surgery, and I've had to become even more sneaky at my backyard skyrat shooting, like hiding in my garden bar at 5am for a quick snipe, then creeping back to bed before she wakens.
It's amazing that you manage to pull that off, Stephen 😄 Keep it up, mate, and thank you 🤝✌️
"excellent" shooting ?............I beg you pardon ?.......... Taking the wind into calculation = yes........ taking a clean death for the pigeons in consideration = no... !!
@@danizweifler6061Have you ever heard anything so "Wet" taking a clean death for the pigeons in consideration = no... !
those pellets certainly stop the skyrats in their tracks, even if they were wearing a suit of armour...
Imagine that, a sky rat with body armour 😉 I hope we never see that. Thanks, bud.
The skyrats being hit by 9mm is like a human being hit by 14.5mm or 4-bore calibers - armor literally wouldn't save them 😈
Good thing they are pest. If you were hunting for food there would be nothing left:) Please tell us about your camera setup. Thanks
Thanks, bud 🙂 I use a GoPro Hero 7 Black with an Eagle Vision lens, and the Orion Cam cam adapter.
9mm has fewer fly offs and less flopping. Typical cat behavior .
Hits like a hammer, bud, yes 🙂 Cheers 🤝
Glad to see are keeping the new kitties fed!
Every time I go there 😊
Your videos and editing is excellent 😂
You give me so much credit, Dave, thank you 🙏🙂
9mm absolute brutes?Good shooting👍from BIGMICK IN THE UK 🇬🇧
Thanks, Mick 🙂
WOW so many cat cubs which means the adults are well feeded :) I'm not suprised :) Good for everyone the pigeons are so stubborn and stupid enough to get back and occupate places when they are frequently taken down :)
That's the one thing I tell everyone saying pigeons are intelligent birds. Thanks for watching, bud.
@@AirRifleActivities The only intelligence they have is in regards to geography and navigation, bud. Basic survival, not so much. Heh.
@@DinnerForkTongue absolutely, mate. Couldn't agree more. I know they navigate quite well for hundreds of miles.
Thanks! I love your videos! PLEASE 🙏 kill the rats 🐀 and don't shoot the nice little pussy cats.
David, it's so kind of you, thank you for the generous contribution 🤝 It really means and it helps a lot!
I would never shoot the cats or kittens and they will keep getting fed as long as I have those permissions.
More videos coming soon.
Cheer, friend; many thanks again 🙂🤝
@@AirRifleActivities You are welcome! I always enjoy your show! Go in peace and God bless 🙌 🙏 ✨️ ❤️ 💛
Let’s see some woodchucks and raccoons next !
I don’t think they have either of those in Europe.
@@kenpickett9317 you're absolutely right 🙂
Thanks for watching, you boys 🤝
9mm.......Boom! Nice Video Mate 👍🏼
Thank you so much, Lars 🙂
tankyou for your view and your disclaimer.
the clueless will still complain and vote down your video because for them these pests are more important than the fellow human beings who can suffer due to the droppings from these birds contaminating the grain.
My point exactly, thanks for the understanding, mate 🤝 A lot of people have no pity for their fellow humans, and think their conscience is clean - they have no idea what it takes to produce and store the food they get off supermarket shelves.
Good kitties, nice kitties, Uncle feeds them all to not waste wild protein. Good videos.
I appreciate it, buddy, thank you 🙂👍
Great video and i loved seeing the kittens coming to get pigeons
Thanks, Steve, the cats are totally stealing the show 😄
Nice shooting though think with the cost of 9mm works out an expensive way to control the rats, I will stick with the 22 and JSB ko slugs.
Best wishes Buddy
Mike
You're right, Mike, I don't intend to shoot 9 mm at the winged menace all the time 🙂 I'm hoping to be able to put the gun to use on something bigger. Thanks, mate 🤝
Another GREAT footage, Alex. I had a huge problem with pigeons a few years ago.. And the only way to eradicate those flying rats is AIR GUNS!! In my case Hatsan air rifles!! Keep up the good job!! Cheers!!
Thanks, brother 🤝 I've always said the same thing - culling those birds is the only way, preferably with the versatile platform of airguns 🙂
Another fantastic video Alex, wow that 9mm is a beast mate, always great shooting and a brilliant watch , and the Finche is a Goldfinch my friend Cheers 👌👌👌👌👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks, Casper, to me it seems as if I was the only who didn't know what those birds were 😄 Cheers, brother 🙂🤝
Pleased remember not to shoot the cute little pussy cat!
Never, David 🙂
Watching those pigeons tip over.....was very soothing....no such thing as overkill!!!Keep blasting away...maybe bigger next time...45-50 cal...
😄 That would be too much, Emilio, and would pose a danger and defeat the purpose of airguns. Thanks, bud 🤝
That Cannon does a sure job on the sky rats as long as they are dead who cares about the fire power 👍👍👍
😄 True story. Thanks, mate 👍
Howdy, new scriber here, im curious, are you getting strikes against your channel for your dispatch shots? I trapped a rat and got a strike for that! Love the channel btw
Thanks, buddy, and welcome to the channel 🙂
No, I haven't had strikes, I'm trying to take shots that dispatch them instantly or as quickly as possible, and I usually do not show all the gory stuff, also scenes with blood are in black and white.
I couldn’t believe i got a strike for trapping the rat. I even edited right at the snap of the trap.
Wonderful! I didn't know that air guns exist in 9mm caliber, maybe that's why some pigeons seem to freeze after being shot. By the way your adorable newly acquired friends :kittens are definitely for pest control! Trust me.
I expect they'll become pest controllers of their own one day 😉 Thank you kindly, my friend 🙂🤝
A very interesting video, my friend, and the photography is really wonderful, as if we were together in the hunting field .. Thank you
Thank you for joining me on that adventure and I hope to catch you on the next one! Cheers 🙂
@@AirRifleActivities
Thank you, my friend, God willing
Another excellent video and just love the kittens and cat 🐈⬛ am sure you have made some friends for life 😂
Remains to be seen, Chris 😄 Thanks, friend 🤝
Fantastic...in my country, Argentina the pigeons are protected by laws!!!...I hate them!!!!!
I know, friend, it's like this in many places...
Where I live, people tend to protect skyrats, believe it or not ! Perhaps of religious purposes, but they use to forget that these animals carry many diseases in their defecation and body. They feed them and complain that their population is overcrowded in big cities...I think it is the legendary human duality 🤣
You're doing quality content as usual, and be sure that you have the support of your online community ! 😀💖
And I can't begin to tell you how much that means, buddy 🤝 It's good there are people like you who understand and appreciate this. Thank you 🤝
@@AirRifleActivities you're welcome chief 👍
They carry no more disease than any other urban bird- Pigeons being diseased and dirty is a old wives tale...
Raised them with my grandmother as a child, never any issues- just sayin.
Back when TH-cam was not so uptight I use to spend time watching all sorts of videos such as these. Good shooting.
Thanks, mate 🤝 I agree, the platform is pretty restrictive these days...
Hello to tiny kittens :)
They say hi too 😉
Great video as ever, you've inspired me to get out and pop a couple skyrats....ever try those tannerite pellets? i can confirm there epic xD
Thanks, bud, and I'm glad I'm of some help, get 'em sky rats! 😈
Tanerite pellets? I don't think I've heard of those...🤔
It seems to me that you should be aiming more often to males of pigeons. These large birds are not only annoyed by their appearance, but are primarily responsible for such a large population of these garbage birds.
Always nice shooting!
Thanks, buddy, and perhaps you're right about the males. Usually I just aim at the one that presents me with a better opportunity for a shot straight at their vitals.
I get popping the Pigeons is great. I don't get baiting the squirrels in the backyard just to pop them.
I know exactly what you mean 😉 And I totally agree with you. Luring pests in only to complain about them is more than a little weird 😉 Thanks, bud.
anytime there’s a seagull extermination it’s a very good day. i would love to see more of those sea rats be on the receiving end of your rifle. outstanding work as always
Thank you, friend. As you know, they're protected in many countries and around here I can't do that just about anywhere, that's why I seldom have the opportunity to get one of them, but every time I do you'll get to see it 😉
😂
i hate seagulls too
Are you a? You can't tell the difference between a pigeon and a seagull?
@@D_A_N_I_34 The seagull is a scavenger, eats baby rabbits and also eats birds.
another great video ,the cats learn at a young age.
I hope they'll be pest controllers themselves one day 🙂 Thanks, mate 🤝
very cool I love shooting air guns, skyrats are good sports they cone with friends and family haha
😉 We also help the owners by removing them from their property. Thanks, bud 🤝
Nice shootig and a beautiful rifle. Can't wait untill get mine after selling my kidney;)
😉 I admit, buddy, not a cheap item, bit abgran gun. Thank you 🤝
Not over kill despatch is much faster. Nice job.
That's true, buddy, thank you 😊
Nice work, buddy, and especially for taking care of those cute cats!
Cheers, brother 🙂
Never seen those pellets that size before, wow , great videos you do , probably the best on TH-cam
Thank you, Malcolm, most kind of you and it means a lot, buddy 🤝
Excellent video, could you spend a day taking out sky rats please
Thanks, buddy 🙂 Not at that place I can't - as soon as they open for business we must stop.
Really enjoyed this video the cats were good but the star of the show was definitely the 9mm. Hopefully you get somewhere to use it properly 🤞
Thanks, bud, I'm glad the kittens didn't steal the show entirely 😄
As far as the cats are concerned we humans are food shedding animals 😂
😄👍
Awesome shots!
The kitty was so cuuuute!! 😍
So happy to see your videos as always 🩶🩶🩶
(Btw my username was ‘Johnny Depp’s Asian Alpaca’. 🙈
I recognized you immediately by the profile image 😉 Thank you so much for watching again 🤝
@@AirRifleActivities Aaawh… 🥹🩶🤗 of course! I like to watch you hunting pests and being cute and fun with the kitties. 🤗🩶🥰
I’d love to have that black kitten lol.of course by now he’s probably big lol
Yes, they've grown, Walter 🙂 If properly looked after its fur will be like velvet.
👍 hello everyone !
Hey, mate 👋
cats try sercing food and news homes
They have a home there and I provide them with fresh pigeons every time I go there 🙂
I'm glad I wasn't there - I'd have to taken a kitten home with me...or 2 plus
😄 I'm a cat guy myself, buddy, although I've had dogs too. No one would mind - feral cats, they're up for "adoption", you can take as many as you want. I intend to do so myself as soon as my son is a bit older and is capable to help us take care of the pet 😉
Great video Alex!
So many cute kitty cats on the new permission.
They love the Leshy 2. When they see it they know a meal is about to be served!
Perhaps at this point they really associate guns with a fresh meal 😄 Thanks, bud! 🤝
Amazin toy :) love the video as always! What is the feeling shooting it comparing to 0.25? p,s try 9mm ZAN slugs made for this beast
Thanks, buddy 🙂 The feeling is much closer to shooting a firearm - there is some recoil and you are much more aware of the power it packs.
I'll have to see about those slugs 🙂
@@AirRifleActivities I bought ZAN slugs 0,253 cal in 33 grains made for L2 it is the most precise ammo I ever used even better than NSA made for L2. And you can use standard mag
@@filipkovacec5759 I shoot those with my Huben K1 Lite, buddy 🙂
OMG, is there a 9mm Edgun Leshiy made where can i buy it .......?
You can see the link in the video description, mate 🙂 It's where I got mine. Thank you and shoot straight 👍
Nice gun. Nice shooting. Get rid of the STUPID mask!
Thanks, my friend, and soon 🙂🤝
You should take up monkeys or iguanas. Love this educational vid.
Thanks, buddy, but I'm in Europe 🙂 No iguanas or monkeys here. Cheers 🍻
Great video,the little cats are adorable.
They really are, buddy, thank you 🙂
Mantappp bnget acurasinya. Good 👍👍👍
Thanks, brother 🙂👍
Growing fast and with every video getting better and better! One of my favorites your channel!
Most kind of you, bud, thanks! 🤝
It means a lot, I'm grateful for your comment and for watching!
European goldfinch, Carduelis carduelis. Next time you are in conversation with a cat, try making very slow, deliberate blinks - preferably when you are within the range of its claws. This denotes trust. Similar actions abound in nature. Chimps will take your finger in their mouth and gently bite on it. You (and they) know they could remove your finger if they want to...
Thanks for the tips, Mike 🙂 I didn't know that thing about the cat but it won't let me that close... For now 😉
Love the slomo! You can't see much with regular speed.
Yes, buddy, that's why I include such footage on almost every one of my videos 🙂 Thank you 👍
Smash em up! 💥👇💪😱🤣🤣🤣😆😆😆
On it, bud, thanks 😎👍
The finches are goldfinches. Beautiful bird.
Yes, buddy, other people said the same, thanks 👍
So not only are you culling pests, but you're giving a fighting chance to local predators like the kitties by giving them raw prey.
_How could anyone hate this?_ You're balancing the scales human mass scaled farming tipped off-center! Excellent work, and superb pellets!
Thanks a mil, friend 🙂 I really hope those kittens will develop a taste for pigeons and grow up to become natural pest controllers. Cheers 🤝
Awesome video Alex and the 9 mm sure does a number on the sky rat's. I don't blame you on making sure of your backstop because that's a big chunk of lead that doesn't have air breaks. Next up 9 mm Hades pellets guaranteed to make a sky rat explosion. Cheers brother
Thank you, Donald 🙂 The P3 by RTI is up next and then I intend to give them sky rats a taste of the 9 mm Hades. Catch you on the next one, friend 🙂🤝
You could try rocket launcher RPG... :-D
If they come up with a pneumatic version 😂
9mm slugs on pigeons!! Lights Out.
Nice work.
Thanks, bud 🙂 Actually those were diabolo pellets but they still pack a lot of punch.
You got my attention, I love guns and you got jokes to 😂
😄 I try to, thanks, buddy, both for watching and appreciating my silly sense of humour 🙂🤝
You make LMFAO! That cat knows you 😂
She does, and I bet she was wondering where the heck I'd been for so long 😄
Huh, 9mm is not quite the spectacle I was expecting (I thought we'd get much bigger feather bursts!), althought it does make sense - it's not like it's an artillery shell, exactly. What _did_ impress me is how silent this big girl is, she's even less noisy than your usual .25 caliber gear.
Two things I really like about it are:
A) the instant stopping power that poleaxes the sky rats - it's like the finger of Death personified flicking them dead
B) the resistance to deviation caused by wind, which for you is a constant problem.
On the other hand, though, there are issues:
X) sustainability, since it takes much more pressure to push a pellet this heavy at an appreciable speed
Y) overpenetration, as standard sheet metal used in farm structures and civilian construction is really not that hard to punch a hole into
So as always, it's a game of tradeoffs.
The kittens! The adorable hungry-for-pigeon kittens! 😍 Please tell me you've petted at least one off-screen, Alex, I just can't with them.
I did 😄 I did pet the black one and the the other wild-cat-looking one - they were too close to the gun and I had to gently remove them to avoid an accident.
You're right about what you said about the gun. It is surprising quiet, courtesy of the Behemoth, and there was a pass through on every shot, hence the not so impressive spectacle. I gotta try shooting Hades at the sky rats.
As for the air consumption, that was a pleasant surprise too - with the 470 cc bottle, at the current setting each shot consumes about 4-5 bar.
Thanks, mate 🙂
@@AirRifleActivities I'm certainly down for trying out the Hades on it, if only to gauge the issue of overpenetration. Yep, totally only that. 😗🎶
That's impressively efficient, nice!
@@DinnerForkTongue thanks, buddy 🙂
Cats is waiting for you where you go those also follow you
Yes, they do, they know my presence there means fresh pigeons, bud 🙂
9mm on pigeons 🤣 I bet it left holes you could drive through. Monster of a gun! The interesting birds were goldfinches btw. Top vid
Thanks, bud 🙂 It did quite a damage but I can't show this here on the Tube. Thanks for letting me know about the birds too 🤝
Awesome video Alex Awesome power out of your leshiy 2 with those 81 gr look like Bowling balls flying through the air lol thanks for sharing be safe buddy 👍
Thanks, Chris, the bowling ball analogy was spot on 😄
I have a sparrow problem would love that rifle.
9 mm would be way too much for sparrows, mate 🙂 You can get them even at close range with much lower power.
Those kittens are soooo cute! Feed them some birds!!
Every time I do pest control there 😉
Great shooting again Alex. The Finches are Gold Finches here in the UK, i have some mating pairs and young birds visit my bird feeder. 👍🏻
Thank you kindly, Paul 🙂 I learned sth today. It's great what you've done with your birds 🙂
I found my 35 cal air gun shot much better with pistol bullets. The L2 might do really well with some soft cast or copper plated 9mm Browning projectiles. I wouldn’t suggest full jacketed in an air gun barrel.
You're absolutely right about the metal jacket in airgun barrels, mate. Not but soft lead in those.
What you say sounds really interesting.
@@AirRifleActivities Not sure if polymer coated soft cast are available in your area, in the USA the are very popular and fairy cheap.
@@bust3dstr8 AFAIK Alex is in central-eastern Europe, so I have my doubts about them being cheap.

My wife comments is that the pigeon and cat guy
That's me, buddy 🤣 Pro cats, not to so much so when it comes to the sky rats 😉 My regards to you and your better half 🙂
Nice one! It’s a Gold Finch.
Thanks, buddy, and you're spot on about the birds, I learned sth from you guys 🙂👍
Goldfinch.
Thanks, bud 🙂🤝
Man some of those sky rats are tough to take a pellet of that size and weight and still fly off a few meters.
Cheers from California.
Indeed they are, mate. Strong fliers too.
Thanks and greetings to sunny California 👍
Outstanding! Instant off switch! 👍
Thanks, buddy 🙂🤝
Cool videos and nice shooting! What air rifle do you prefer the huben k1 or the edgun 9mm?
Thank you, friend, and I would go with the K1, the 9 mm is just too powerful for my purposes 🙂
Maybe the 9 mm for pigeons is a bit exaggerated?
It absolutely is, mate, I said it myself at the start of the video 🙂 Consider this a test - the impact of high powered airguns in sky rats.
@@AirRifleActivities I use the GOOGLE translator, it must have escaped me, I would like to be able to do it but here in Sicily and in Italy in general it is forbidden, then to use rifles that exceed 7.5 joules you need a firearms license!
Excellent Russian-made equipment.
Thanks, friend, it is, credi to Edgun 🙂
Sometimes i wonder how they can still move, when you blow such a large hole into them... great video once again!
Thanks, buddy 😊 In this case it's the projectile that carries a lot of energy and makes a pass through.
11:42 Goldian Finch Bird u r ri8 Brother....
Thanks, buddy, you're spot on, everyone tells me so, I learned sth from you guys 🙂
Lovely shooting the 9mm looks a beast! The plenum must be pretty large with the gauge all the way at the rear?
Yes, it sure is, mate. I can't recall what was the exact volume, I think it was stated on the website of the seller, it's in the video description, in case you're interested. Thank you 👍
Another great video… the L2 is an awesome thing…love mine ( .177)keep feeding the cats 👍👍
Thanks, friend, more coming soon, and straight shooting to you 🙂👍
Have a contest where the winner gets a kitten!
😄 They're up for adoption I suppose, but I wouldn't ship them 😉
