[QUOTE="vdub, post: 1699234, member: 6845"] The bill last year was gutted to try and get another attempt at passing an Open Carry Bill. It got shot down like all the others did. Numerous other states seem to have no problems getting it passed and have not had any issues with rampant poaching. As the Texas Wildlife Department stated in their report, they could not find any reason to prohibit the use of suppressors on any land while hunting. That statement right there speaks volumes!!! Maybe Oklahoma should pay some of them to come up here and educate our Wildlife Department on suppressors. However, the WMA's are vastly different than other government property since they are actually open for hunting and firearms. A government building is not for either of those purposes. Unfortunately, the only Senator to attempt to get this passed, Senator Russell, is not running for re-election so unless someone else comes along to pick up the causes, then this will be the last attempt at getting anything passed for this issue. While it is better than nothing, you are still putting conditions on it. Unfortunately, requiring to own land, lease land or have permission to hunt the land will more than likely eliminate quite a few suppressor owners from being able to hunt with them. I think your itemized list is correct to what the bill will accomplish if passed. [/QUOTE]
