Garden guns are small bore shotguns commonly used by gardeners and farmers for pest control. They are made to fire small gauges such as .410 bore, .360 bore, 9mm Flobert, and .22 Winchester Magnum Rimfire, or .22 Long Rifle rimfire shotshell cartridges. They are short-range shotguns that can do little harm past Шаблон:Convert, and they are relatively quiet when fired with rimfire ammunition. These guns are especially suitable for use inside barns and sheds, as the low-velocity small shot will not penetrate roofs or walls, or injure livestock with a ricochet. Such guns are also used for pest control at airports, warehouses, stockyards, etc.[1]

.22 Rimfire

In North America, garden guns are usually chambered for .22 Rimfire and the most common cartridge is a .22 Long Rifle or .22 Winchester Magnum Rimfire loaded with No. 12 shot. From a standard rifle, these cartridges can produce effective patterns only to a distance of about Шаблон:Convert, but in a smooth bore garden gun, this can extend as far as Шаблон:Convert.

Examples of smooth-bore firearms include the: Marlin Model 25MG,[2][3][4][1] Remington Model 511SB, Winchester Model 67, and the Henry Garden Gun.

In Europe, garden guns designed for the 9mm Flobert rimfire shotshell cartridge are common,[5] and face very little to no restriction, even in countries with strict gun laws.Шаблон:Fact Its power and range are very limited, making it suitable only for pest control.[6] Fiocchi-made 9mm Flobert rimfire ammunition uses a 1.75" brass shotshell firing 1/4 oz shot of No. 8 shot with a velocity of 600 fps.

Examples include the Chiappa Little Badger Shotgun[7][8][9]

.410 bore

Small .410 gauge shotguns such as the Snake Charmer, Rossi Tuffy, and H&R Tamer are also commonly used by gardeners and farmers for pest control, and are sometimes called "garden guns". .410 shotguns loaded with shot shells are well-suited for small game hunting and pest control; including rabbits, squirrels, snakes, rats, birds, etc.
