Feel free to yell at me, but ...

I can't figure out the anterless permit for lottery areas. Do I need to buy an actual firearms license before I apply or can I just apply for the permit on its own by the deadline?

My quandry is this. I bowhunt almost exclusively, but if I haven't gotten my deer by firearms season, I may decide to participate for the first time in four years. However, I don't want to spend the moolah on a license if I already got one by archery.

Pretty sure you have to pony up and buy a license.

Ah. So I will probably be safe and cover all of my options, likely making a donation to the state for a firearm license I won't need as murphy's law will probably and hopefully prevail.

Your right. You have to buy the license first.
