One of my major pet peeves in hunting is the cliquishness that pervades it. Hunting is a dwindling sport, and if people don't fix their recto-cranial inversions and get some new blood in the field, it'll get even less common over our lifetimes.<br /><br />You'd need to take a hunter education class - and all 50 states (I believe) recognize the certificates from other states.<br /><br />Distance: walking could be in excess of two to three miles per day over moderate terrain. Most shots will be under 100 yards. There are occasionally longer shots presented, but those are limited by your equipment...<br /><br />Gun laws, short form:<br />- clone of the federal AWB is still in effect. No high-cap magazines, only one evil feature on autos, etc.<br />- out-of-state pistols are strictly verboten.<br /><br />DEC adds their own set of laws. Magazine capacity is limited to five (plus one), no lights or lasers, and there are restrictions on "implement" depending on where you hunt. This spot (about an hour south of Rochester) restricts you to shotguns (20ga or larger), muzzleloaders, bow, and pistol (see note above about pistols).<br /><br />So ... the 336 is out. Sorry. :-( I have a few possible loaners (shotguns) if someone reallllly wants to come but either doesn't have an appropriate gun or is flying and doesn't want to deal with it.ZerCoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08347518441827166007noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6867503761315699133.post-43412495765103112782010-12-13T08:22:14.981-05:002010-12-13T08:22:14.981-05:00If you're serious about newbie hunters, I'...If you're serious about newbie hunters, I'd be interested. I'm about as noob as they come!<br /><br />If you are going to do this, can you give me an idea on what sort of distance we'd be hunting over? And, if you have a good link to the gun laws in that area, I'd appreciate it - save me having to google and guess!<br /><br />This would give me a good reason to finally get that 336 I've been jonesing forcybrushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06741515852251537514noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6867503761315699133.post-18733266400538269982010-12-13T07:41:03.138-05:002010-12-13T07:41:03.138-05:00ooh sounds fun .. maybe in a couple of years i'...ooh sounds fun .. maybe in a couple of years i'll be able to join in :)Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06506274310934059070noreply@blogger.com
