hangunnr Posted October 11, 2006 Report Share Posted October 11, 2006 Found something kinda interesting while looking through the current hunting regulations. This first picture is a photo of the INDR website showing what weapons are legal for hunting whitetails this year. I know, you're saying..... so what? Here's what....... This picture is a actual photo of the handbook issued by the DNR. It dosen't show handguns as being legal during the firearms antlered season. Again, so what...... The so what is that CO's in the field usually carry the handbook and use it as the bible when enforcing the rules while in the field. This could result in a citation being issued or worse an arrest being made. I'm awaiting an email response from the DNR for clairification... hangunnr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VTbowman Posted October 11, 2006 Report Share Posted October 11, 2006 Re: Attention Indiana handgun deer hunters I suggest you print out any response you get and keep it with you when your hunting with your hand gun too. I am sure you would anyways... I hope the book is the typo and not the internet site... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoosierbuck Posted October 12, 2006 Report Share Posted October 12, 2006 Re: Attention Indiana handgun deer hunters It's interesting and I guarantee it's a typo. The DNR did not disallow handguns for bucks during firearms season...if you get caught and cited, call me and I'll talk to the prosecutor for you!

hangunnr Posted October 12, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2006 Re: Attention Indiana handgun deer hunters I don't doubt that it's nothing more than a typo. Still haven't heard back from the state. Makes you wonder what other typo's could be present.... hangunnr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeB Posted October 13, 2006 Report Share Posted October 13, 2006 Re: Attention Indiana handgun deer hunters During my daughters hunter ed class, the CO's said Daniels just signed an executive order saying that you can carry a handgun (if you have a permit) during any season, including archery. I've talked to several CO's so far with a bow in one hand and a pistol on my hip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
