What's the best way to kill a mini sentry as a Scout?

Title.

Also no saying "go soldier" or "go demo" or anything of the sort.

My Scout Loadout:

Scattergun
Flying Guillotine
Candy Cane

Scattergun and steady aim or bonk.
Fighting minis really isn't that deep.

You can't shoot while you're bonked.

Anyway, I suppose I should add my standard loadout to the OP.

Use the Pistol or the Shortstop to take em out.

Try to stay of the mini-sentry's range if possible.

OR. Notice the OR.
Either shoot it, or bonk past it.

I noticed the OR. However, I asked specifically how to KILL a mini sentry. I want to get rid of them, not run past them.

Replace the Guillotine with any of the pistols when Mini's become a problem. Alternatively, use Bonk! Atomic Punch and just avoid it entirely.

Take it out before it is completly built or reatreat.

If you are too late, pistol is best idea if you aregoing to solo it.

Otherwise, get another player to meatsheild you and you take it out. This works bretty well seeing that the mini deals low dps to one person at a time, so you can take advantage of this by rushing in with 2 or more team mates.

The best between candy cane, guillotine and scattergun is the last or change the guillotine with a pistol

Be a team and use another scout as a distraction

You can try shooting it afar from your pistol, but this consumes time and ammo, and possibly leaves you vulnerable to attack. Another thing you could do, though difficult, is to lock the Mini-Sentry into constantly turning and shooting it at close/point-blank range, this can also be done on normal Sentries.

The Mini-Sentry itself is made to pick off single targets like the light classes, sticking together and ganging on it counters it pretty hard, if not useless. Most of the complaints about it comes from those that play on pubs.

What I do, I just spam it with my pistol when it I'm out of its range

its pretty simple

[Bibbins]

Yes, you shoot it.
