I live in LA county, (D11) and have seen much wildlife in whats known as the MRCA or Mountains recreation and conservation Authority. I have checked on their website and it is specified as public land however there is no mention about it being legal for hunting. Does anyone know first hand about this organization and whether or not hunting is indeed legal on those lands? Any info would be great. Thanks guys!

MCRA like our conservancy properties down here in San Diego are public property (government) in the sense people go and walk there and have limited access.....Hunting at least down here is NOT allowed.....Public land in a way, but not really IMO.

Like Steve said. Some of our wildlife areas, allow restricted hunting. For example hunting with shotguns but no rifles or pistol's. No deer hunting, each has it's restrictions. Some no hunting at all. NFS and BLM are your best bets.

Thanks Centermass, Ghost, that map is awesome! I feel like I have seen it before, but its a bit out of date (1994), still a damn good reference. Do you know what websites I can browse to find a more up to date shooting map? If it exists...
