[Zeke 5,504]

I know it ( da plug) needs to be in for hunting. Jus curious if da plug needs to be in at a Wma.

Supposed to be, but I have never known anyone to check as long as your behaving.

The plug needs to be installed only when pursuing game. (No one plugs their .22 rimfire magazines on rifle ranges on WMA land; correct?)

Plug not required when shooting at WMA for fun.  C'mon... we run KSG's, UTAS-12's, and DP-12's.....

Yep plugs are only required for hunting. And they do check, I was checked at Clinton and pequest three different times last year

A device to limit the gun to only hold 3 rounds.

Migratory Game Bird Act of 1916, various state game laws limiting total capacity to 3-shots resulted in the need for a "plug." To think that Remington got a patent for a wooden dowel too:

Yes but not always my browning BPS had a plastic plug. 

I've lost several mossy 500 sticks and last year the night before pheasant season I had to make one out of an old fishing rod lol.
