Petition Change The Gun and Hunting laws.

More details

Change the current air rifle power limit to 18 FT LB of energy. Change the Air pistol Limit 12 FT LB of energy.
Legalize bow hunting Vermin and Foxes if a bows drawl weight is 40 pounds and above. Allow .22 rim fire pistols under the Section One firearms. Legalize semi auto .243 calibre rifles under the section one firearms. Allow public land to be used as a hunting in appropriate areas.
Reasons...
With an 12 FT LB air rifle it is difficult to humanly kill rabbits and pests, I can understand you don't want dangerous hi powered air rifles but 18 FT LB can not
cause fatal damage and there is no valid reason not to legalize this.
