I have found at least one video of air gunning Eurasian collared doves in ARIZONA (MY NATIVE STATE) on a priavte farm. It could mean that the ECD is not a protected species in AZ and/or the air gun is lawful for that puropse in that state at least on private property. I believe Texas has also caught on with air rifles. Many elected officials don't know a moderator from a Gamo Swarm when it comes to compressed-air-powered recreational weaponry, I presume. There has to be a large enough public demand for air gunning for game and a loud enough cry for their acceptance, maybe. Many game laws are driven by emotion rather than practicality and sound conservation science.
