Steve,
Yes, you are far enough out to be OK.
BTW, I was looking for an FT venue and there is one maybe 1.0 - 1.5 hrs away in CT (but not shoot until Oct 19th (http://www.wlopa.com/wlopaair.htm).
The one in NY is a bit too far away. You could post on the Yellow forum for a shooting buddy. I'm betting ther is someone nearby that you could go plinking with. Or on the FT forum (http://www.network54.com/Forum/451309/).
I'd offer the use of my airguns but: 1) I'm a lefty, and 2) a 10 hour drive to Virginia.
Have fun in NY state, it'll be beautiful when you go.
Chuck
Another lefty here Chuck
Meet me halfway?
Got an answer on the yellow forum,
I can buy, own and plink with an airgun BUT, to hunt;
CheersYou must have a nysdec small game license to legally hunt squirrel.
You must pass an approved hunter ed. course to be eligible to buy a license.
Squirrel season begins Sept. 1. A hunting license purchased now would not be valid until Oct. 1. You must have purchased a license last year to be eligible to hunt before Oct. 1 of this year.
Steve
ask them if that if those rules apply to pest control? If they are causing damage to the property then there maybe some excepts. I remember seeing something on the yellow forum a while back about it. Could have been anywhere in the US though.
Hope you have a good time.

Shooting squirrels is a fine line between hunting and pest control. If you're on private property it could be considered pest control (farmers do that). So, how big is her land?
If you were to be conservative and buy a smallgame license, they're $55 USD (not bad from your perspective with the US Dollar half of the British Sterling :-)) See here www.dec.ny.gov. Although it being private land I don't think you'll need one.
You need to watch all the Rocky and godfather movies. You can say "Yo Adrian, that squirrel had a heart attack and fell out of dat tree".
So you're a lefty and your only going there for two weeks? And buying an airgun??
