Existing law restricts the use of firearms in certain areas while hunting, prohibits hunting with a firearm while intoxicated, and requires the use of certain ammunition. This bill would authorize hunting while using a lawfully possessed silencer that is attached to a firearm measuring 16 inches or more in length.
