However, some individuals could do to study the page on how to carry their weapons again.

I gather that when shooting, they are supposed to fire slightly downwards as the bullets can travel a long way if they go straight and miss the target. I know at least one did not do that around here last year as one person had to take a trip to hospital!!! I have never seen them in that sort of head gear though, that is more scary than tangling with the hunt. We are overrun with sanglier so it does have its advantages, but I hate hunting otherwise.
