My New Long Range (For Me At Least) Target

[MeccaOz]

Hey Thanks Eduardo If / When I make it over again, I'll let ya know * Huge Grin *

Hiking as a reason to carry is for protection against animals is it?

Who knows what goes on in these peoples minds? I just wanted as few restrictions on my permit as possible. In NYS you are required to show reasonable cause for having what they call an "Unrestricted Permit" but they do give permits for other limited purposes.

When I first got my permit I was denied an unrestricted by the Judge. She then asked if I hunt or go to ranges. I said yes, so she granted me a restricted permit. Her tone however was that I was lucky to get even that.

About a year later my friend showed me his permit, he had Hunting, Target, Hiking and Camping on his permit. So, I requested an amendment to my permit (at a cost of $91) to get Camping and Hiking added to mine. Judge only granted the Hiking.

I also have a Utah and Florida permit. With reciprocity laws between states I am able to carry in other states which don't impose limits as to when you can carry.

Maybe these are the animals we need protection from while hiking?

Yeah, I remember your story in another topic how you had to go before the judge for the license

You'd think so. You're just about not allowed to defend yourself here until you're dead though.

Wow that looks like fun, and a great place to shoot. Totally understand your frustration! Some nice guns too.

My friend and I are looking to setup a remote camcorder with video sender back to where we will be shooting from for this sort of stuff for the reasons you've listed there.

It won't be much. We're starting with an old unused camcorder (in case our aim is not as good as we think! ) and sending the video using the video out port on the camcorder to a monitor running on an inverter with a battery. Once we get it working, I'll post some pics.

$86.69 shipped from eBay for the plate.

With chain and hardware figure another $15.

I bet a few shiny new GoPro's have been put out of action like that

That's a lot better than I expected.
