Not as exciting as it sounds. Sad a bit, in fact.
Visiting my Dad, I saw he had purchased a BB gun. My first reaction: ???? He bought it to dispatch a woodpecker that has been pounding on the side of his house and drivning him nuts. It showed up while I was there and he plucked it out of a tree, but only wounded it. It was suffering, so I went to the car and pulled my VTAC out of the trunk to put it out of its misery.
It took the poor little guy's head off very cleanly in one small choplet, and his suffering ceased.
So, it appears, has my Dad's!
