OMG! Guns, shooting and mouse traps? :S
Just pick up a 'small size' live trap at any sporting store or Tractor Supply always have them in stock.
Trap him now before he starts chewing the wires in your RV which WILL be his next project. Put a goodly amount of peanut butter with sunflower seeds on it in the trap and in less than one day your problems will be over!

If you are in city limits of most towns, you don't want to be discharging a fire-arm of any type.
Simplest & most humane option is to live-trap him and relocate him far far away.
I have no problem with terminating them, either, if they are 1) a meal or 2) impossible to relocate.
One squirrel is not worth dressing for a meal, and almost everyone lives close enough to a state or city park to find a good relocation spot.
I'm more interested in live and let live, no point in killing an animal just because you can.

Our co-hosts had a squirrel get up under their van this summer and it chewed wires on the transmission causing the transmission to have problems. You do not want a squirrel around. How is it getting in to hide the nuts in your upholstery? Sounds like you have some areas that need to be closed up with expanding foam or something.
