Good afternoon,

As the hunting season quickly approaches, I was curious about the use of my roof top tent (Tepui Tent) as a hunting blind while its mounted to the roof of my vehicle.

We plan to drive, park and camp, but I was wondering if it is legal to actually shoot from inside the tent?

Thanks!

Glen

In CA it would not be legal to shoot from the tent attached to your vehicle.

It all goes to the definition of "vehicle." A trailer is a vehicle. For that matter so is a bike.

It is a non-motorized vessel. I would argue Hobies are not allowed.  :smt008

Nope.  Good to go from a trailer that isn't attached to your car.  And you can definitely shoot from your bicycle.  And your kayak.
