Maybe it's a dead rat. I am not inclined to shoot something that rough.
Put it in a gun vise, tie a string around the trigger, hide behind the car, and let 'er rip. 😏
I did that with a questionable 50-70 Springfield for a friend one time after I had cleaned it up and procured him some ammo for him. It didn't blow up after a few shots, but I still wouldn't have wanted my face close to it. He's still alive and has all his digits, so it must not have been as bad as it looked.
