<<<Is anyone here finally starting to understand what I've been trying to talk about or should we just continue to argue?
If argue, then PM me and I'll be happy to fistfight off line. Be prepared to bring your plan as to how adopting the beloved Idaho ML model is going to work everywhere.>>>
Tahquamenon,
I have carefully read your posts. I see that you are putting forth a great deal of logic and have offered some good insight.
Some remember your earlier position and seem to think that you are still pressing the modern agenda. I saw that you were watching for a method to implement a traditional season even then though and have been reading more carefully because of this.
We disagree on very little. I think that you wrote coiffure when you meant coffer. Or did you?
(Was this a test, typo or a joke?)
I do not want to argue with you as there is not a lot to argue about. I think that I will restate some of this and percolate on others.
Your pointing out that there needs to be a better definition of the guns is well taken. Mule ears and underhammers meet the given definition and may be the reason for its wording.
You seem to be saying that leaving openings to be exploited later is not wise given what has happened in the past.
Eliminating the cap removes one giant opening. Limiting to flint poses a strong challenge to the people who seek a method to exploit the season with some modern gun. It would likely pose such a great challenge that they might withdraw. It seems to remove all doubt regarding the concept of "traditional".
However, I think that the flint only would be a pretty hard sell in some locations. I would not mind it, but it is lessens some of our numbers to the point that you might be ignored by most state game departments in making such requests. Is that a good or bad thing? Maybe with low numbers, we can fly below the radar?
I think that some inclusion of the civil war vintage muskets might be wise in gaining enough people to be accepted if we determine that numbers are helpful. Other traditionally styles caplocks fall into this category as well.
Interesting balance point.
How inclusive do we want to be with this? How many people do we wish to exclude and why?
We should examine the concept, make a decision and then move forward.
Do we do this on a national level or state by state?
Tahquamenon,
There is inteligence in your writings. I appreciate your wit and wisdom. It is good to have a strong sounding board.
Thank you for your input.
