Calling this a DNR law or even alluding to it confuses people who are not comfortable researching Statutes and Admin Code. Although a DNR representative testified at the hearing, they did not have a vote whether or not this Statute got passed or on its language. Long gun carry effects all shooters and not just hunters.
not sure if you were referring to me or people in general. i just quoted the FAQ, because it was easiest at the moment. i do try to read the law sentence by sentence, but after you read so many pages, your head starts smoking and you start forgetting or cross-remembering things by the end of the day. i'm not a lawyer, but do believe that i can seem to decipher and understand most of what's written in there fairly well, but then just as i think i figured it out, something else usually catches my attention and starts stirring everything up again.
such as with the question i posted for this thread. even though i "think" i'm a bit more comfortable with the thought that i could openly secure my rifles on my motorcycle now while going to the range, i'm still a bit confused, as it seems there might be some opposing opinions. if a law was written so clear cut, then i should have just gotten 2 pages of "yes" answers, not 2 pages of "yes, maybe, no". LOL
and honestly some of the replies in this thread also didn't help my confusion very much.
