If it doesn't fit the topic in any of the other forums, and is firearm-related, put it here!

Apparently everyone seems to interpret the law differently.
Usually to agree with their side of the story or to be on the right side of their argument.
Me , I don't shoot in any municipality. Not even public ranges , so that doesn't effect me.
All my shooting is on private land or in the desert miles from anyone so the 1/4 mile rule doesn't effect me either.
Personally I read the 1/4 mile rule the Game and Fish have as for hunting and that is only without permission from the owner of the structure. If you do have permission from the owner you can shoot out of the windows if you want.

This is still only applies to "within or into the limits of any municipality"; Every Municipality in AZ already has a law about discharging firearms within it's jurisdiction.
Not sure what your point is.

Where? Got any links? What's your definition of 'cheap'?

I've looked for land from Chevelon to Snowflake, Concho to Witch Well in the past and couldn't quite find something that I could either afford or that appealed to me.
What's your definition of cheap? There was (possibly still is) an 80 acre parcel for sale in the Witch Wells area north of St John's that was listed at $24k OBO.

It is a fairly flat rectangle with some vegetation.
