So- the bloke used a dart gun with poison dart - text said bullet.
That is a PCP air rifle, likely a dart gun.
Small capacity as seen by the tiny air cylinder -
or perhaps CO2, which is even less powerful.
No Daryl, you are being confused by the idiotic Indian journalists with shit between their ears. Who also have no idea of firearms.
Quote:
Principal Chief Conservator of Forests AK Mishra told The Indian Express newspaper that a forest staffer had managed to dart the tiger with a tranquilizer at around 11.00pm.
"But she charged at the team, forcing Ashgar to shoot in self-defence," he said. "The tigress lay dead in a single shot."
The "journalist" or "editor" of the newspaper either has no idea of firearms or doesn't care, and just wanted a sensationalist photo to use.
