Thanks Rock Chuck for clearing that up. I have visited a friend there before and was informed I had to have a license if I wanted to have a gun in the field and I am sure I read it somewhere, where I can't say anymore. In MT we only need a license to hunt the game animals and so can hunt rabbits, gopher, coyote, etc. all year long without a license. (I don't know what the lic. requirements are for those in ID.) We can carry a gun in all those occasions. I have asked our Fish & Game here about it and was told, in so many words, it was ok during hunting season if you don't have a tag. Remember the 2nd amendment doesn't apply to hunting. Besides whether we believe it or not we still are innocent until proven guilty.
