In my state it's illegal to shoot from off a vehicle while hunting. Maybe handicaps are allowed to, but that would be the only exception if there even is one. Shooting from a vehicle is likely illegal in all states. And the word vehicle is not just limited to automobiles. ATV's, tractors, and pretty much anything motorized is considered a vehicle when it comes to a game wardens point of view.
I know your allowed to carry, and it's perfectly legal to step off the vehicle and then shoot. So your not really doing anything wrong unless you do fire from the driver's seat while in motion. That's when things get not right. And that's what you don't want a game warden to see you do.
I'd think you'd draw attention to yourself (if seen by game warden) if you was driving a tractor with rifle in plain veiw. Not many hunters use tractors for transportation. They pretty much all use automobiles and ATV's. So if a game warden sees you on a tractor with a gun, that's going to catch thier attention. An old school warden would probably just give you a talking to. But we don't really have any of those anymore. A new school warden won't give you that talking to. Just make a note of it, and then be putting you on the watch list. Move in for the kill when they see you crack off a shot from the driver's seat. Bust ya when they can wright tickets and confiscate guns. And yes, that's what the newbie wardens would do. Wait for the big day and the big bust.
Just thinking out loud.
I ussually don't carry when on tractors. But am ussually less than a mile away from my guns when I am on my tractors. If I seen something that needed put out of its misery, it wouldn't take me long to leave for arms and come back.

Today's Featured Article - Third Brush Generators - by Chris Pratt. While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
