Has anybody tried this yet? Looks like a blast! Think this is my next vacation. Fishin' for a referral to a good outfit. So far I've come up with Freedom(also sells videos under D.O.A.[death from above]), Apex and Venture. I know it's gotta be alotta $$$. Just don't want to climb into a poorly maintained chopper with a hung-over pilot( now there's another thread to start.) Looking for a chopper with a rear slider in order to run a sling across opening for additional support(like our snipers in the Coast Guard use) and mount a modified BMF activator to the AR's trigger guard(which turns it into a Gatling gun.)
YouTube has quite a few of video's posted(most garbage), using both AR's & scatterguns. Here's one of the better AR links I've found;

Welcome to two years ago. Word on the net was that this is not legal hunting in Texas, but state sanctioned population control.

Or maybe the general public and press is grossly misinformed.

I'm sure it is legal. It would be the same as us hunting prairie dogs for a chopper. Even more legal if it is on private property. Most hog hunting is used to take them out in mass numbers when possible because they destroy everything
