So exactly where do you see the state trying to ban these guns from hunters when at the same time they are trying to promote hunting? You guys are imagining things as usual thinking that the boogie men will break down your doors to get your deer guns.
how is it that a grown man can completely ignore the blatent facts before him, and believe such nonsense?

just what in the hell is it, you think this state has done to "recruit new hunters"? lets see, would it be..

-the 30% hike on hunting and fishing licenses?
-the impl. in some zones and state lands of pointless antler restrictions? oh yeah new hunters love those
-voting down Xbow bills year after year, despite the fact that almost every other NE state has allowed them at this point.
-stupid trigger lock laws!
-not allowing hunters to transport guns and bows ,at the same time, during archery season, despite the fact that it overlaps w/ WF and small game seasons

the list goes on and on! DOES THAT SOUND LIKE THE STATE IS TRYING TO RECRUIT NEW HUNTERS??????????? what a ridiculous statement!

typical NY sportsman attitude, you got your "deer rifle" and your 12ga so thats good enough for you right? Oh but im sure youll stand up for your rights when they try to take YOUR guns or finally make your non numerically encoded ammo and firing pins illegal.....then again , judging from what you write, probably not.
