prob not the best thread lol, as others said, ive seen a member on here named "mnr".
if thats not enough to warn you to each their own i guess
:S
If some CO wants to track me 2k back into the bush , find my stand in the dark and check and see if I have chambered a round at 06:15 instead on 06:17...then the MNR has a huge problem with their application of enforcement.
Man you guys are a bunch of Nervous Nellies ..... I think they call it Capiophobia...look it up.
I have it from the horses mouth, at least in this area, a CO will not go into the bush to look for hunters breaking rules, especially in the dark. It's a safety issue.
So what goes on in the tree stand at 06:15 am is between you and your conscience, because no one is ever going to find out what you do back there.
The fine for an unencased firearm is $150. That's a bargain if you ask me
114. Unlawfully possess firearm at night 20 (1) (b) $150.00
I think you could nail you with the 113. "Unlawfully hunt at night" ...but then you can still be hunting without a loaded firearm while you sitting in your stand, in the dark at 6:00am...think about that for a minute HaHa.
Before you all get excited...I'm not condoning an unlawful act....just playing along with Bush Mooses attempt to lighten up the forum in the 'extraordinary' times Haha..
I am the same as you always go by the sunrise and sunset charts for my specific area.I see no advantage or need to have a gun loaded before or after legal shooting times as the light conditions are poor and like others in the evening I have no desire to track a deer in the dark.I personally know my area CO,s and would be terribly embarrassed to break a law for no real advantage. It basically comes down to hunting ethics and setting a standard for and others.My son is now into hunting and setting a good example is very important for me,as he also sets and example for his buddies.
