According to The Villages on-line news, someone is using a BB or pellet gun to shoot out windows of cars. More than 50 cars have been damaged in Fruitland Park, Summerfield, and other communities. Read about it on their web-site.

Thank you for posting this. I had no idea they could break car window glass until I read this article on the local on line news.


I immediately think of kids. I didn't have a gun like that, had no brothers who did and our kids and grandkids didn't. I think they are the same as what we called B B guns? My grandfather said they could blind someone. Whoops. You called them B.B. guns. Thanks again Jan.

You can actually kill a small animal with a pump pellet gun. I had both as a kid----my Dad would certainly frown on me incorrectly using either---that's putting it mildly.

Definitely sounds like kids without proper parent supervision.

Hunter Extreme - The Fastest .22 caliber airgun available | Gamo USA (http://www.gamousa.com/product.aspx?productID=288)

I had one of these kind of rifles as a preteen. They can kill rabbits, ducks, mice, rattlesnakes, moles, voles, gophers and coyotes if hit right.

I always considered it as dangerous as a .22 rifle. If hit in the eye or temple a pellet from one of these could easily kill a person. I see there have even been deaths from getting hit with a pellet gun on other parts of the body. http://www.indystar.com/story/news/crime/2013/11/29/noblesville-teen-faces-reckless-homicide-charge-in-pellet-gun-death/3784679/
