Legal question???

[sonny]

Is it legal to shoot a gun after dark?

Ok we all know that you can not hunt between 1/2 hour before sunrise and a 1/2 hour after sunset.

But what about when there is no open season for anything?

So now you're asking why do you want to shoot a gun after dark right?

Well suppose I want to capture a fireball from a carbine in the dark either at the gun range or in an old gravel pit.

Thoughts?

I guess it depends who sees and hears it lol. If no one does,, is it illegal ??

 Hmmmmm .... that's a very interesting question . We use to goose hunt
    Very close to a reserve , sometimes when we were waiting for legal
  time , quite a bit of gunfire in the dark coming from the reserve   .
  Didn't seem to bother anyone ....so my suggestion obviously , do it
  near a reserve . This happened more than once usually Saturday
   morning . Keep us informed .

Take some fireworks with you. Some of them might sound louder than others.

         Not sure about that one at all. Interesting question though.  Imho unless you are doing it right on the outskirts of a town I'd say go for it and don't get caught but really it's probably best to throw a call into RCMP or FW and see what they say.
         Funny W101 mentioned hunting by a reserve.  Some many years ago I was camped down on the Nordegg river up the Sunchild and got woke up at 1:00 in the morning by a crapload of gunfire.  I thought I had slept in until I looked at my watch.  It was close enough it woke me up but far enough away I didn't think much of it.  In those days I didn't worry about much full of piss and vinegar and all lol. 
         Did make me wonder about how the "rules" work though. 
         Not trying to derail just blabberin .

I do not think they are legal in Canada.

Holy crap you could start a forest fire with those things.

Think I'll pass on those.

So do you incinerate your pray with those things, or does shot actually come out of them?

Head out to one of your crown land spots and post up the pics when you return Just scaring off a bear officer.
