Unless it's a doc rule specific to firing a rifle when not hunting, which it doesn't appear to be, then this will be the relevant law:

This touches on it. Carrying a firearm.

Just don't endanger, annoy, or frighten any one.

Did you read the first line of the page link you posted? - the one about the Arms Act . . . Now read what GPM quoted from the Arms Act re land owner permission. Now tell me you are not committing an offense under the Arms Act. I agree the chances of getting caught are slim, but it's one cock up and there goes you FAL.
