I tell you what, i'd love to get a pistol right now. I'm probably be going to get one soon. right now i'm using a .22 long rifle, which is somewhat of a hassle to get through dense woods. I catch alot of fox and one method i use for dispatch is this: Take a shovel or a hard, flat object and hit animal on the nose (it doesn't have to be to hard, this is only to stun them), then flip them on their back. put one foot on their throat the other on their rib cage and press down hard for a minute. this suffocates them quickly leaving no blood at the set. I wouldn't advise this for anything other than fox though and oppossums. raccoons can be mean and dangerous. as with all wild animals safety should come first.
The antis might not like that method
...... oh well
