    So err on the side of caution taking anything from that 2017 COLFO webpage as relevant now.
    Don't call your AO either, as the view of an individual AO won't be a defense in court.
    Well if it's just policy and not law then I will contact lawyer Nicholas Taylor tomorrow and report back on what he says.

    I have a contract for rabbit control around campgrounds and the short + silent rifle is the best way to go (as long as it doesn't end up in court if I can help it)
    A good job and a good wife has been the ruin of many a good hunter.
