“Still no hunting allowed with autoloaders in PA?”
They recently lifted the ban on magazines holding over 3 rounds.
Poaching is a big deal up here. Hunting is a major part of the Pennsylvanian revenue, and our hunting lands are globally recognized.
The game wardens here are the highest authority in the state. I once got pulled over and had a bow in my trunk outside of bow season - they circumnavigated my ass for an hour on that one. I got in a lot of trouble and caught an earlashing from one of the scariest cops I’ve ever met.
Real question: were there any broadheads in the trunk with your bow?
IMO, poaching with bow & arrow is hard to detect, as the wardens would regard it.
