It has been long practice from J3 to Super Cub, just open
the door and shoot at a 45 degree angle, the prop doesn't
like buckshot.

We need these on the Mexican border to shoot coyotes.

Two legged or four?


Yes...

I'm not sure that it is all that wise to shoot a rifle that ejects spent
shells while in an aircraft (and I'm using that term loosely) that has a
pusher prop *right* behind you?

Now, wouldn't these guys be on or over their OWN land? Why would they
NEED permission to carry weapons or shoot from it on/over their own
land? Especially if they are in a powered parachute or ultralights,
which are not regulated.


Because, as much as we would like to think otherwise, we don't live in a
*free* country... Look at Waco... The kooks were minding their own business
up until the government decided that it wanted to exterminate their religion
and get some PR points for the upcoming Brady Crap Legislation...

It varies state to state. In WI, you can't hunt by air.

You can't hunt by air here in Montana either but blasting coyotes is not
hunting, therefore the hunting laws do not apply.

They sell shell-catchers, a bag and attachment.

Colorado, too; it's not hunting, it's "Pest Control".

Try taking deer or elk from the air and DW will shove a SAM up your butt.

I've seen them advertised, but never used one since I don't reload... Are
they 100% successful?

I would hazard to guess a 12-gauge might be more appropriate when shooting
from a low and slow air vehicle like that though...
