scout Posted October 22, 2010 Report Share Posted October 22, 2010 I have been told that there are bye laws in place in Cornwall which prevent pigeons being shot under the general licence on Sundays. Can anyone offer any advice on this subject , I have trawled the net and not found anything definitive. This could just be ancient gossip as I was told by a friend of a friend who claims to have known someone when he was at school a few years ago now. cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferret Master Posted October 22, 2010 Report Share Posted October 22, 2010 Fairly safe to say it's rubbish or we would have heard something about it by now. FM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dekers Posted October 23, 2010 Report Share Posted October 23, 2010 (edited) There are one or two interesting regional "rules" around the country, personally I have not heard of this one, and I've shot several times in the county with "locals".

scout Posted October 23, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2010 cheers all, thats kinda what I'd got to but thought I'd ask around in case I'd missed the obvious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vince Green Posted October 24, 2010 Report Share Posted October 24, 2010 It would appear to be a perfect example of a rule you could plead ignorance of if ever questioned. Who's going to enforce it anyway? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leeds chimp Posted October 24, 2010 Report Share Posted October 24, 2010 actually talking about this today it refers to game birds like duck pheasant etc not vermin like pigeon as this by law applies in norfolk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
