OMG.....how many of you actually think that someone is gonna unload their rifle and not shoot at a deer from the ground?? Idiots win again...

If I am reading that right…..that is the most ridiculous crap I've ever heard! Now who in the **** is going to NOT take a shot a deer with a HPR once they get get on the ground??? NOBODY….thats who. But yet a guy carrying a rifle that is currently legal can….Hahahahaha

I agree a stupid amendment. Not really fair to guys not physically able to hunt from a stand either... Should they choose to use a HPR.

It's a stupid........never mind. Dew predicted this. Have at it, fellas. :rolleyes:

Shoulda just left it alone years ago.... We are whats the word, oh yeah f..... so now when know when someone w enough power wants a law changed they can do so. Glad the standard has been set... Awesome.

....'and more of my predictions will come true also. The ones who wanted those HPR's just got a line drawn across this state. Have at it "Joe Six Pack".... LOL!!!

More Dew predictions coming true in the very near future.....

Go pat a few NRC members on the back for making messes like this possible...... THEY started this "path"..... Boyz, this is what happens when a website leader shows the world how to "get your way" when wanting to "add weapons" and use the NRC to undercut what the IDNR actually wants in the first place.

You just get more and more and more of the same. Isn't KARMA and Pandora's Box just lovely in full bloom... LOL!!

The way I understand it goes to Full Senate (twice) and then back to a conference committee made up of members of both Houses with agreement by the author. Then to Gov and AG for approval then on to the DNR/NRC to establish a season which could be as simple as one day season or more.

This is the crap that happens when politicians try to do the job of the DNR....pathetic ...... all because a few "shooters" were butthurt over last years ruling.... simply pathetic ...

Yep, the DNR should have "manned up" last year and passed it since the support and opposition were split fairly evenly. It would have been a "cleaner", less convoluted version. Instead, they chose to pull it until a later date.

And,yes, I know you oppose it.

Thank Gawd. Otherwise people on here wouldn't have something to bitch n whine about all spring and summer. ( or thump their concave chest while spouting "i told you so" ) Lol

Thanks for the info.

So private land, 10'off the ground, deer have to be within 20 yards, a one day hunt between the hours of 12p - 2p,yellow caution tape must be around property with signs saying HPR in use, and only the southern part of state where the guy that wanted it lives. LOL Just kidding and making fun of this whole thing. Archery season is going to get crowded.

Another consideration……what about the guy that wants to hunt with a HPR, and and is handicapped or cannot climb to meet the 10' rule??? These people just don't think!!! :rolleyes:

If it doesn't concern them...no...they don't think.

Im mentally challenged....does that count...? h.h.

Me too!!! Guess thats why I don't "get it"!!!

That makes 3 of us.... :rolleyes:

I predicted there would be 3 of you...... LOL!!!!

Just havin' fun.... j/k......

Lol

That was funny. Have to be able to laugh at yourself from time to time.

Yep....That WAS funny....

I see NO humor in it at all…..making fun of us "slow guys"!!!!!

The predicted part is what I was laughing at from the earlier discussions.

whats the story with the purple paint marking property??

Is this new??

No.... That wording has been in the bill since day one..... Has nothing to do with HPR.... Many other states are already using it!

This takes out the north/south debate on rifles.

OK I did not notice it before. thanks

HB 1231 Second Reading in the Senate has been postponed until Monday, Feb 29. That date is the deadline for Second Reading of House bills in the Senate.

thanks for the update, I am sure Dew already predicted this would happen

Just tell me the rules, so I know how to play the game.

What a mess. They amended the bill and removed the 10' elevated stand but left the north-south dividing line. They also put in a 10 round magazine limit and only allows rifles on state owned ground. Sunsets in 5 years.

It's a mess right now.

ROFLMAO !!! dam politicians ....

This is awesome! Our government at its finest. LOL

That's methed up.

Only on over crowded state land lol

Is this seriously what this is going to??? Comical isnt even a good description, scary is closer to it..

ONLY on state ground! OMG!
