I was actually thinking about bow hunting this year, but I will just go with a .22 mag, so the pistol would be a moot point anyways, if I were to get checked.

My 357 SIG would be on my hip. It would kick the shite out of anything furry that wanted to mess with me. Worst comes to worst, it's loud enough to scare the shite out of it when I missed.

For a confusing discussion on this exact topic, check out this thread from a month ago:

just got the new regulation book for this year and it doesn't say anything for bowhunting. it does specify you can only carry a .22 with rat shot during primitive weapon though.

We all know the law, so a better question would be,

Anyone ever been confronted by greenjeans about this before?
