I agree. That said, it's one of those gray areas. I've been told more than once if it doesn't say you can , you can't. They could let a Judge decide $$$.

My Grandads .410 pump was well used when he let me call it "mine". I hunted for gophers-deer. I carried a paper hull .410 slug in case I saw a bear. Still have it. The gun is in a safe, well worn now, very shootable and priceless !
Guess the old timer driving uses a motorized chair on shore, can't stand for long times. Was sitting down and couldn't see . If I remember correctly he is facing serious charges. X3. That prop damage is amazing and 3 very lucky fisher people. Amazing this doesn't happen more often.
