Legal or not in AL? Bow mounted laser rangefinder such as the Leupold Vendetta? This is all I can find in the game laws book.
It is Illegal to: " Hunt using laser sights, attachments and light sources to project a beam forward of a gun or bow, except for legally blind hunters."
I really don't think that applies to a laser rangefinder, but I might be wrong. What do you say? Thx, Robinhedd

The way I read the regulation, it's illegal.
83% of all statistics are made up.

You'd probably have a hard time convincing a non-hunting District Judge that a mounted rangefinder isn't a sight. It would be easier to convince the GW and hope he knows the difference.
Lord, please help us get our nation straightened out.

Does not project a VISABLE beam so legal
Keep your booger hooker off the bang switch.

I'd say not. But, Looks like it will be the GW discression so you could get a ticket if he feels like it. Kinda like corn.

When they first hit the market they were illegal here. They are legal now.
