Browning A5 recoil versus Benelli SBE

[tjwatty]

I know it would be hard for a former officer of the law to believe but sometimes, just sometimes we do make honest mistakes. Shells can get mixed up and I think if I was checking someone I would have to give the benefit of the doubt to a person who had one wrong shell in his box. A full box would be another matter. Some of us can't afford different clothes for all the different hunts. I have an aquaintance who was arrested for having a partial box of 20ga. lead, even though he had a 12ga. gun. He had been quail hunting the day before and had neglected to remove all his shells from his pockets. I personally think that was a little out of bounds and not in the meaning of the law.
Yea, I know all the legal scholars will have a ball with ignorance of the law and all that but really, are the CPO's there to catch those who are blatantly breaking the laws or those that are easy to catch??
I know it's a tough job, but I see so many who love the power more than the job. You don't have to be a jerk, and you don't need to send everyone to jail.
And I'm sure popplecop was one of the good guys....

Sorry, end of my rant....
