Order 3346 - Revocation of the USFWS Director's Order No. 219

This was a great Texas Independence Day gift! I wouldn't have been able to hunt on the NWR system here in Texas this year. When I was on a hunt this past year, immediately after the election, Refuge personnel were dancing a jig.

Here in California we are still dealing with the lead ban on most hunting. Come 2019 there will be a total ban. I guess I will either continue using lead bullets and take the chance I won't get checked or hunt in Nevada or Oregon. Then Fish & Game won't get my license and tag contributions.

Call me a rebel but I planned on ignoring the ban if I hunted the refuge.

I wonder if the part that states "controlling of predators effectively and efficiently" will have any effect on the wolf predation we're seeing out west. That would open a BIG outcry among those who think that wolves in the wild are just like in the Walt Disney movies....wouldn't that be nice. Maybe all this BS about the Russian "connection" and other such fantasy's that seem to be the focal point is a "good" thing right now. Seems nobody is paying any attention to these changes. Also am hearing that something is coming to make your state CCL legal in all states.

Nationwide carry will be good if they can get a clean bill, the anti force are trying to tack on doodoo that will actually make us less free to carry.
