Was looking for a pellet gun (air rifle) for the backyard. Haven't had one in 40+ years, looking to control a few crows and other vermin. The Crossman 1377 air pistol looks fun and may just be the ticket. Does anyone have one of these and a opinion?
Read your local and state laws. It's still illegal. That being said.....I have a Benjamin pump .177 rifle and a Benjamin pump .20 pistol that both get shot in the backyard regularly. Either are powerful enough to take down a crow or squirrel.

I bought a box of Aquila Super Colibra 22LR and shoot them out of my henry lever action 22. They are 20 grain bullets that hit about 500 fps and are no louder than a pellet gun. They don't have enough power to work a semiautomatic rifle or pistol. I do a lot of hobby woodworking and my neighbors (who are pretty close) think I'm using my nail guns in the shop.
Where did you find this Aquila Super Colibra 22LR ? I couldn't even find it online.
In Tulsa - $200 fine and potential confiscation of the air rifle.
Check your local ordinances, some make exceptions like:

I have a Ruger Blackhawk Elite I picked up at WalMart that I've gotten a lot of fun out of. It's a spring operated break-over single shot, came with a little 4x32 scope. Looks like this:

Academy carries it here.
I bought this Benjamin NP2 in .22 about 6 months ago at Academy for 189, it's fairly quiet and has an effective range of 25-30 yards on varmints. Shooting 14.3gr lead pellets the muzzle velocity is 820-830fps energy is 21-22flbs.
