Shotgun Hunting regs

[Bonz]

and since this is for the new hunter reading up before his testing. and this talk on schedule "c"..the one on that list you do need a basic hunting licence for is the newly added feral pigs, havent looked, but id assume it says that in them.

[boxhitch]

yes i realize its backward thinking. but for most if it, it fits and makes sence...

sorry you live that way by choice

along with that unlawfull to section

Not just the page 14 section , but throughout the regs the 'unlawful' word comes up

rabbits not listed

Eastern cottontail and European Rabbits are listed as schedule C.

I always found it weird that buckshot needs plugging but slugs don't.

[Bonz]

Page 14 defines what can be hunted under Schedule C without a licence, rabbits not listed
Schedule C requires a hunting licence for the most part

only 1 on schedule c that needs a license if i recall right. them feral hogs, and as other posted., rabbit is on the list
maybe my thoughts arnt so wrong then lol

So I can fill my semi auto with slugs to hunt deer or blackies that's news. And great news at that

It is, well said!

I'll add that slugs are not legal in Bow/Shot only areas in BC as they do not meet the definition of shot. To do so is a regulatory violation.

Bonz the idea that laws are permission as opposed to prohibition is certainly wrong. Licenses are the exemption to doing something otherwise illegal. Some idea you've expresed here are plenty wrong as for what the rest of us should do/how a system supposedly based on the Rule of Law functions; however, if your personal sense of ethics tells you that's the case it then certainly is correct for you!

The idea that laws are permission not prohibition is disturbing. None the less, very common and an idea promoted by authorites in socialist police state nations with apartheid systems such as this one.

Also wrong is folks studying for CORE or what have you via a Hunting forum. Read the synopsis and the actual legislation behind that. Ask MFLNROD/BCCOS for clarification on an issue or just do what you want and back your play in a court of law if needs be. It's fun to have a chat but forums are for entertainment, not legal advice.

Many regulatory violations are akin to a traffic ticket as per the amount fines are and the process. This knowledge comes from study on the matter. I have not been accused of violations of the Wildlife Act/Hunting Regulations in BC nor in any other jurisdiction.

lol, dont take my idea so literal guys. i know how to read the regs

[Bonz]

think i mentioned to the new guy to ask the co in the area he wants to hunt in to, somewhere on here. they even have diff ideas of the regs

I'd like to know where limiting a magazine originated from.

There is a limit on how many animals you can take, why limit how fast you can take them?

I'm betting its from the rich guys, with some pull, back in the day with their fancy side by sides that got out shot by average Joes with pumps and magazine fed guns. The beginning of political correctness, limiting everyone to the lowest common denominator, cause someones feeling got hurt.

If anyone knows the real answer, I'd love to hear it!
