[quote:Cactus31:MV8zOTU3Mjc3XzcxNTM0MDQ5XzEyRTM2NDY4] IIRC, the sign verbatim says "Target shooting across roadway is prohibited" (will double-check tomorrow when at my 600yd BLM spot). Most - but not all - BLM road in my area that aren't fire roads behind heavy gates made of steel railroad (easy bypass on dirt bike/foot/horseback, though) are pretty well maintained. Shit, around Larch Mountain (Oregon, not WA), the Bull Run Reservoir that feeds Portland's water supply is situated scores of miles through thick, harsh forested wilderness areas, and because of this, the local BLM roads are gravel, but the Bull Run Reservoir access road(s) and adjacent series of fire roads are all blacktop. Anyway, I hope nothing comes of it. Fucking absurd they are to have even bothered you in the first place! [/quote]

Long story short, I got busted for: "shooting from a roadway." while standing in the middle of a logging road shooting my gong I had set up 25 yards off the road.
This was in the BLM, about 5 miles up into the mountains.
And the cops weren't the department of forestry or game wardens either. I think they were department of interior.
And they certainly weren't local. Were wearing full battle gear, carrying M4s with plate armor.
They ran my drivers license, concealed carry license and revolver serial number and said the ticket would be mailed to my address.
I thought the Feds were on furlough.
Not these apparently.
They are obviously driving everyone out of the BLM lands around here.
