grab a free box with a bottle of Jack!

woo hoo!

you can't possibly come up with a reason a civilian would need more rounds than a hunter, so don't bother.

are muggers more dangerous than bears, for instance? where's that 'line' you suposedly drew?

NY bear law:
It is unlawful to hunt big game with:

A firearm or bow aided by any artificial light or a laser that projects a beam toward the target.
An autoloading firearm with a capacity of more than 6 shells (one which requires that the trigger be pulled separately for each shot), except an autoloading pistol with a barrel length of less than 8 inches.

KY-
LEGAL BEAR EQUIPMENT

• A modern rifle of .270 caliber or larger, but firearms may NOT be able to hold more than 11 rounds (10 in the magazine and one in the chamber), may NOT be fully automatic (capable of firing more than

one round with one trigger pull), and may NOT be used with full metal jacketed or tracer ammunition.

Do you have to demonstrate 'need' to exercise these rights? X_Digger Feb 2013 #53
the fact that you exist is the demonstration, you dingbat farminator3000 Feb 2013 #58
So you agree.. you don't have to justify exercising a right. Glad we got that out of the way. X_Digger Feb 2013 #61
IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO AGREE WITH A NON-THOUGHT! farminator3000 Feb 2013 #65

Lol, so no logic connecting your statement, it was just pure insult. Gotcha. X_Digger Feb 2013 #69

so one holds 4 rounds, one holds 5, and the plinker holds 15? and you say 30 is the limit? farminator3000 Feb 2013 #98
Right now the limit is infinity. I'm cool with that. X_Digger Feb 2013 #99
well, there's your problem, right there! why not just make ammo free? like matches? farminator3000 Feb 2013 #100
Bears don't shoot back. X_Digger Feb 2013 #101
they also don't give a crap so much when shot, yet 6 to 10 rounds seeems to be reasonable farminator3000 Feb 2013 #107
Magazines are part of arms. (See 'right to keep and bear') X_Digger Feb 2013 #111

Look at the bag limits of the various animals. JVS Feb 2013 #24
Does than meant they'll be exempt from an AWB? aikoaiko Feb 2013 #7
the AWB lets people keep their guns, so farminator3000 Feb 2013 #43
I ask b/c you said "exempting subsistence hunters from gun control legislation" aikoaiko Feb 2013 #90
i'm not the OP, that was Robb, but here ya go- farminator3000 Feb 2013 #94
Sorry, I should have been paying attention to the OP and who was responding. aikoaiko Feb 2013 #96
Are you assuming most guns are confiscated in the near future? NickB79 Feb 2013 #11
I still think they should be included in any type of legislation. Arctic Dave Feb 2013 #28

Are we talking about single shot rifles for hunters shooting for food? Walk away Feb 2013 #56
So you want to turn back the clock by 150 years? Recursion Feb 2013 #74
Yes. I don't expect to get it but I might as well start from what I want. Walk away Feb 2013 #102
It's a tiresome NRA meme, at that: *I* own a 20 gauge shotgun, for crying out loud. apocalypsehow Feb 2013 #76
