Hi, I'm searching a sidearm for hunting, problem is... rounds are expensive around here, and forget about handguns in my country, I can only have 1 firearm, and that is a rifle, so I want a sidearm whit cheap ammo, that I can carry easily and also hunt small game whit it.
The Evanix ar-6 pistol catch my eye, I obviously don't think of hunting a hog or big game whit it, but I wonder if I the 30-35 joules of the air-gun is enough to kill a hog or a greater thing in a 5 meter range if it's placed to the head, or can't even crack the skull.
The strange thing, is that i see recently one of those stupid youtube shows, where a crappy pistol-crossbow whit 8 joules, crack into a ''zombie'' skull whit a bolt, and a high power air rifle chambered in 9mm whit 160-170 joules can't pass the front bone... so I'm really confused.
Crappy pistol crossbow (even if it's 80 lbs, the aceleration space and dimensions only sent the bolt whit 8 joules aprox. as it show Joerg Sprav in the slingshot channel)
Powerhouse air-rifle chambered in 9mm, 160 joules.
I'm really confused... how can a crappy plastic bolt whit 8 joules can crack something that a heavy bullet at 160 joules can't.
Can somebody explain that?
Also, about the evanix pistol, some webs says it can deliver 1000 fps and double action, others low's that to 800 or 600... and not to use on double action, anyone have that pistol to clarify that?
Thanks.
