Most likely an American, first time I saw that done
was in Homer Alaska. My youngest son hooked
a 77 lber and the guide harpooned it , then shot
it with a 357 mag hand gun! Very exciting! Legal
to do this in the States. ......BB
 
hot poker stick... 5' long pole with 44 at the tip.. poke and boom.
 
Why would you post something you do illegally online for others to read?
Maybe it's not unlawful where the poster lives-like Alaska.

Just because it's Cabelas.ca doesn't mean the poster was in Canada maybe they use reviews from anyone who's bought the product.
 
I already checked to see if it could be an American...... Item is not even available on the .com site. Don't think its likely that an American is buying ammunition thru the .ca site being that you have to enter your Canadian firearms licence number to order. Plus I am pretty sure .ca doesn't ship ammunition to the US.

Licences may also be suspended or cancelled.
 
I have ammunition in my house but I do not have any explosives. The reg. is for dynamite fishermen.
 
I know it used to say firearm but I can't find it in the wording anywhere.... Maybe we are aloud to use firearms again. My guess would be they F'd up in the regs. This wouldn't be the only mistake in the newly printed regs.
 
Yes a firearm on a boat is legal... But for years in our regulations we could not use them for fishing. Now it just says explosives.
