Three provisions of Gov. Kathy Hochul’s Concealed Carry Improvement Act were struck down earlier this month following a ruling by a three-judge panel of the Second U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals.
On Dec. 8, the Second Circuit panel upheld a district court’s injunctions against the CCIA provision requiring private property owners that allow public access, including businesses, to post signage to allow firearms on their property. Unless successfully appealed, this means property owners will need to post signs if they do not want firearms on their property.

There was a time when I believed that all the deer in New York were in the Southern Zone. And any time I had the opportunity to hunt there, I would pounce on it. Over the years, I’ve been fortunate to have a few places to go, courtesy of a few of my hunting partners, and have even taken a few deer from these spots.

A Warren County woman is again reminding lake-front property owners to practice safety in the use of ice-eaters and/or bubblers.
Cindy Mead, of Horicon, took on the issue – one that has been debated in the ice fishing community for years – in the winter of 2021-22 after her daughter’s dog drowned in Brant Lake, in northern Warren County. The dog had wandered off and gotten in the open water created by a de-icer and was unable to get back on shore. The dog was later found deceased in the water.

When Smith & Wesson announced in 2021 that it was leaving Massachusetts, and taking over 700 jobs with them, many wondered if one day Remington would eventually do the same here in New York by pulling out of the Ilion factory, in Herkimer County.

RemArms, or what continues to be known by many as Remington, announced Nov. 30 that the company would close its firearms manufacturing plant in Ilion, in Herkimer County, in early 2024.
According to a video statement from CEO Ken D’Arcy posted to the RemArms Facebook page, the company will be moving its Ilion manufacturing operation to LaGrange, Ga. The modern Georgia facility is where RemArms’ headquarters were established following the former Remington company’s 2020 bankruptcy.

Late muzzleloading season in the Southern Zone continues to be later than ever. For the third year (since 2021), New York’s holiday-week hunt – which allows hunters in most of the Southern Zone to use a muzzleloader, bow or crossbow – is set for Dec. 26 through Jan. 1.
The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation implemented the hunt in 2021. DEC’s goal for creating the hunt was to allow families, particularly young hunters, more time in the woods together.

After waiting all season for it, the snow was finally coming down quite steadily on the very last day of the 2022 Northern Zone muzzleloading season. Four of us spent the morning and early afternoon making a few small drives in one of our main hunting areas, and eventually the rest of the guys were ready to call it a season.
But I had other plans.
