Someone told me it’s illegal to put a box of ammunition in the same case along with the gun. Cannot find it in the guide. Anyone ever hear this?
I am not aware of the laws stance on this, however I don't see what the issue would be. But since when do laws require common sense? Hope someone can help, is definitely a good question.
I have read and heard it is illegal to carry ammo with gun and case and no ammo in clip. Somebody will chime in in on the law.
CO stopped and checked me about 15 years ago. Found my 30-30 shells in the hard case with the gun. Told me I couldn't do that. Didn't matter to me so I wasn't going to argue with him. Kept them separate ever since.
This is good news if so. It's a pain in the but imo to do the things I've been doing for years. I'm always in a hurry it seems but do it anyhow.
Do you hunt the n.e by chance? I swear a woman dnr officer told us the same during bear season in alcona, But I may be mistaken.. 20 years ago
I have always put ammo in my hard case. Now i have a really nice soft case with an ammo pocket. Even has loops to hold the rounds. My shotgun case i store steelshot in those loops for occasions when I grouse hunt near beaver ponds. I will carry steelshot in those areas for jump shooting wood ducks.
This is taken from MinuteMan.com Clip vs. Magazine: A Lesson in Firearm Terminology Last Updated on August 11, 2020. So what is the difference between a magazine and a clip? It's reasonably straightforward when you look at these definitions: A magazine is designed as a device that holds ammo to be fed into the chamber of a firearm. A clip is designed as a device to hold ammo together to be ready to load into a magazine or cylinder of a firearm. So that's it! A magazine feeds rounds into the chamber, and a clip feeds rounds into a magazine. It's pretty easy to see why these terms could get mixed up so easily. Now that you know the difference between the two items let's take a look at different types of magazines and clips so you can better understand what these definitions actually mean. END OF SNIP
