16 minutes ago, trphyhntr said:Yeah I should of said Montana “has” otc as I was quoting the guy saying to go to Idaho, when Idaho really isn’t any easier to draw than AZ except a couple units where they kill mostly poverty rams in hard to get to areas. If you can’t buy a governor tag in the lower 48 you’re likely gonna have to go to Canada or just accept your fate
Amen

There are a select few units that are OTC in MT, most are a draw.
ID has some great units and awesome rams.
Canada is poverty and you still need the money….

Most of the Dalls are dead in Alaska right now. They are saying 20 year minimum before the state re-bounds to what it was just 4 years ago unfortunately

The difference is there is a clear clarification under B for flying and not on cameras. Again, this is all hypothetical on my end as I don’t have anything to fly.
You better not spot animals from the vehicle or drive the truck closer after you glass something up as that could be considered illegal also if you are going to “err the side of caution”

It's not the flying thats the problem. You saw that buck in July and went back. You got intel via a drone and used it in August. That's a violation of take.
Subsection A is pretty clear. At least to me it is.
Also subsection B clarifies subsection A. If you read A without B I can see where the confusion comes from.

Thats the point the law is written different for trail cameras vs flying. It’s not the same. I agree with your trail camera argument but flying is not the same. I’m not a lawyer or a pilot (nor drone owner) so it doesn’t matter to me but that's my understanding of it. Another example that is similar is It’s illegal to spotlight with a firearm in the vehicle but completely legal to spotlight all night without a firearm and come back at first light without a light and with a gun to kill something. Thats my understanding of it.

Just as a non-hunter is allowed to fly airplanes or drones or run trail cameras to view wildlife year round, so are we. You just can't hunt in connection with any of the info gleaned.
If it’s a place that if you saw a 200" buck in July that you would want to come back and hunt on OTC in August, ya better not do it to start with.
I don’t think that right. As long as it’s more than 48 hours before the season open, flying is okay. So if he flys in July and finds a deer and kills said deer in August that’s more than 48 hours before any big game season so he would be 100% legal.

Sorry it took me so long. Here is the update. I sold the shotgun the AK and one of the pistols already.
-
-Top gun is a 1965 model 336 Marlin 30-30. Great gun, smooth as butter. Has a little normal wear that makes it look and feel like an awesome authentic American classic. $700
-Second rifle is an aero precision ultra light weight upper receiver with a chrome lined Aero BCG. It has an sig Romeo red dot on it. Lower receiver is a KE arms polymer lower. Those things are made here in Phoenix and are supposed to be the only legit polymer lowers on the market. Total gun with a full mag weighs 5.1 pounds. $600
-Third rifle is a Sun Devil manufacturing AR15 I had Dave Beaty (Owner of Sun Devil manufacturing located in Mesa) build me for predator calling, it’s a tack driver and is is pretty light weight. Topped with a Leupold VX3I. $900
-Fourth rifle is a new marlin by Ruger model 1896 45-70 gov. Topped with a Steiner 1-5 power. I have only sighted in this gun, other than that it has been a safe queen. $2,100
-Fifth and bottom rifle is a sigm400 topped with a Holson HS510C & flip up magnifier (as shown in the individual picture as the group picture it is bare without the optics that actually come with it.) $900
-Last is an Sig p365x Cary gun. Comes with a kidex holster for concealed carry and this HS507K red dot with co-witnessing tritium night sights. I think I have like 3-4 mags for it. It also has an aftermarket faxon threaded barrel on it. It comes with the original black factory barrel also. $600
Face to face only. Located in Queen Creek. Best way to get in touch is through text. 480-255-7959

Yes that’s right. It’s just 5 mils different from whatever the center of the cross hair is at.

2 hours ago, CatfishKev said:Follow up question. Other then a sack and nuts how do you identify male vs female? Horn bases look very similar in size and so do the markings.
They look similar, not the same.
A-lot like identifying a boar or sow with bears, the more you look over and hunt them the more you can identify cow vs. bull.

I've never applied out of state, how many years does it take to draw a tag and what do they run? Just curious, thanks.
I think it’s $1650 or something for a tag. NM doesn’t have points so odds never get better. Depending on what hunt you do you have around a 1-3% chance at drawing a tag on average I believe.

1 minute ago, Hoss50 said:I am newer to the suppressor game, but no I don't. My cans are all steel along with my barrel threads though. I also don't leave them on my rifles. If I did I might use some antiseize.
You don't want them loosening up though so I would be cautious about what you used. Loose suppressor = baffle strike potential.
And a loose suppressor = inconsistent accuracy

Most guys are running a quick detach system these days with their cans so you get the best of both worlds while protecting your threads. But if you go direct thread I just degrease the threads on the barrel and suppressor. This helps keeping it from walking off unintentionally.

Unlimited OTC tags for essentially the last 30 years coupled with some back to back harsh winters and a healthy predator population, especially gold eagles that eat the lambs.
AK is a huge state so it varies a little depending on where you are at. They are still trying to figure it out exactly but what’s for sure is it’s not looking good anywhere.
