Do you think that it would be safe to make a couple of coyote getters in 12 ga.?? If you're not familiar with them, a coyote getter is a fixed position gun with a bit of meat attached to a trip wire, a yote shows up to eat it, pulls on it, then it fires, usually a .38 blank loaded with cyanide into their mouth, but I want to make one with a 12 ga shell instead. Do you think it would work???

I know one thing...If my dog happened upon your "getter" we'd have some words. Also, if a fox or bobcat showed up and it wasn't season it would be poaching.

Unless I am misunderstanding your post...that's just askin for trouble.

what would happen if by chance someone tripped on it or a kid walked by it and started messing with it and someone got hurt, not a smart move at all

I can't believe this Gismo you are talking about would be legal.Using poison has to be illegal. I don't agree with your idea.This is very unethical in my opinion.I hope you rethink your idea. Ruger Redhawk

Don't do it up here!

Don't do it in Illinois, unless you don't mind picking up a felony criminal conviction.

Your game laws must be a heck of alot different then anywhere else. As far as liability goes you're asking for big trouble even if it is legal in your state.

oh i am sure it would work . if it did the wrong way you might see how you look in stripes. i would steer clear of that idea. sounds like you been reading them extremist books.whewww don't do that.
