Crossman Ratcatcher is a short air rifle, i know its not full power but i think i've heard on youtube or somewhere that they can be beefed up...just a thought.

Forget CO2 driven types. Think about when the shops run out of CO2 bulblets.
Besides cold greatly affects their efficency (power).

If you want short barrels you should go spring power but with your bad back, it's probably better to go pre-charged pneumatic (PCP).
PCP air are considerably lighter than spring types but short barrels lose power (unless you choose a bullpup model.)

Cautionary thought.
New models of PCP are fitted with anti tamper screws which would stop a totally unscrupulous person from adjusting the power to FAC power i.e. over 12ft lbs. Older models haven't got them as standard though. Still not being a criminal type that wouldn't matter to you.
Some folk just E-ZE out the screws and replace them.

The Airforce Talon SS is brilliant if you have the money.
It can come in 0.25 cal. and has a 12 inch barrel.
A totally unscrupulus person would then order a new regulator ($68 + tax + p&p) from the states so you can dial up 30ft lbs plus at a turn of a wheel (not unlike a gas regulator on a SLR).

Of course that would be illegal if you didn't hold a firearms certificate and I wouldn't have a clue where to look on >>>>>>>utube<<<<<< how to do that.

Cut down the stock & barrel and you have a carbine. Include a folding stock and it is even more portable.
