Say it isn't so.  On your way to pay Shawn,  instead you bought another gun?

Just doing my part to boost the economy! I think I will go do some recreational shooting tomorrow morning.....on state land.....

Cool! So who got your money? I'm guessing not Cabela's?

Damn *censored*s got almost $300 of mine today.

Bscman, where the hell have you been hiding! Excellent points, well stated, fantastic reality check.

You da' man! 

Hey, I think this is my first real "welcome" to the forum---if you can even call it that. 

Now, if you'll excuse me...I'll go back to try and sort out the leak in my roof that started this last rain storm.

does this no shooting mean no hunting ? or just target shooting?

There is nothing in the new law that prohibits shooting. All it prohibits is shooting within 500 feet of a campground, or other area posted "no shooting," and leaving your garbage on WDFW lands. Also this law only pertains to Dept. of Fish and Wildlife lands. It does not affect other state lands such as those owned by the Dept. of Natural Resources (e.g., Capitol Forest.)

Read the new WAC and it should become clear that this does not outlaw all shooting on public lands as some seem to think. Here's a link and in particular you will want to look at page 10:

You might note that many Maps refer to CF as Capitol State Forest.
