[QUOTE="Pat S., post: 182718, member: 1161"] I said similar I didn't say the same. There is a BIG difference! If they want to use flintlock inlines I would say go ahead. Part of the point of a primitive weapons season is to use a weapon similar to that used during that period with its inheirent shortcomings. To follow the evolution which is happening now in many states from pyrodex, to inlines, to sabots, to optics, to ranging reticles marked out to 100s of yards, to smokeless powder being loaded from the muzzle to ....... Eventually leading to more or less a modern single shot rifle with increased effectiveness and therefore a bigger impact on the game species. When it reaches this point I believe most game depts. say what is the difference and why should they be granted their own special season and concessions? The original intent of a primitive weapons season was never about the evolution into a modern rifle as it is becoming. As to your commments about NJ and PETA both of these are overdramatization that don't bear out in this state. [/QUOTE]
