[QUOTE="JMichael, post: 349657, member: 7544"] Not only would I not fire that thing with a load of 12 ga buckshot, I wouldn't want to be near anyone that did. Can't imagine the forces on the wrist from that. And I could be wrong but I thought there were federal & state laws about the minimum barrel length (18" from what I remember) for shotguns without special permits or license. And you sure don't want to tell a game warden around here that you've got something for shooting snakes with! That's a huge NO NO around here. :shock: If you are modifying the original device with inserts or other methods that allow it to fire modern firearm munitions, I'm not sure it would still come under the "signaling device" umbrella and might be classified as a firearm then. Either way, I'd check with local law enforcement and game and fish personnel before I started hauling it around. This is one case where it may not be easier to get forgiveness than permission. :oops: [/QUOTE]
