Game Laws Proposed for Montana Legislature in 1951
Montana sportsmen hope for stricter enforcement and licensing reforms as the wildlife federation pushes measures for mandatory manslaughter charges in accidental hunter deaths, license revocation for repeat violators, higher fines, and expanded warden authority. They also back reorganizing the fish and game department and reintroducing a bill to place policy under the game warden administrator. A separate bill would ban certain weapons and ammo for bird and big game hunting, including many rifles and cartridges, and restrict semi automatic rifles with large magazines.
