Scope Question

[Airborneguy]

A friend asked me this question and I know we have some knowledgeable folks posting here.

Can he bring a long arm to Wyoming that doesn't have a scope on it? He booked a jackalope and snipe hunt there for next February 31st and wants to use his original Dutch 1511 Serpentine Arquebus but from what he can SEE it LOOKS like Wyoming requires long range, observatory-like scopes on all hunting implements including recurve bows and skinning knives.

Also, he plans to carry concealed while there and wants to know if handguns require telescopes as well.

Any help here? Thanks.

If scopes are required, he was thinking about purchasing this one:

Top Of The World Observatory (is for sale) - Top Of The World Observatory

I know, I know, not the best for the job, but it should do. The Hubble is booked already for that day for an invalid Buffalo hunt.

I have that one but you really need something a little more powerful.

Maybe @SteyrAug can chime in? I believe he's a Wyoming resident.

Is this watch legal in Wyoming? My friend heard it can be read from 800 meters with a guide holding your rifle for you:

Steyr AUG Type 2 Universal Rifle Design Wrist Watch - bracelet watch 1192: Amazon.co.uk: Watches

This should work, its mobile and comes with lens covers. Its windy and dusty out there!

His bifocals qualify.

I oppose all jackalope hunting!

I thought they are on the endangered list.

Why would you need an optic to point a claymore into a cage?

Silly question, everyone knows to hunt jackalope the Glock revolver is the weapon of choice.
