He’s running for re-election in 2018 and must have gotten some ‘religion’ on the idea.
I got to fire a .45 caliber air rifle a couple of weeks ago. It is a serious weapon and could easily take down a deer in the hands of a skilled hunter.

As a lifetime NRA member, I am all about the second amendment. However, this is not a second amendment issue. I am not in favor of semi auto hunting. Mainly because it’s already dangerous enough out there with some of these yahoos. Give them semi autos and it really ups the danger level because there are a lot of stupid people out there.
Also, IMO it’s not sporting....
I failed to mention that I am also a PA resident and hunter so this affects me directly.
The Remington model 76, 760, 7600 and model 6 was know for decades as the Pennsylvania rifle. It was a pump action version of the The Remington model 74, 740, 7400 and model 4 Semi automatic rifle that was popular here in the north east for the dense woods and thickets where a quick second shot was often needed to break through enough brush and quickly to take down your deer.
This is not western open vista hunting where you take your sweet time aiming and squeezing of slowly. It can happen quick and then your options are gone.
BTW I like my relatively quick Marlin lever gun
So just out of curiosity, was a recoil operated semi-automatic rifle like the Remington Model 8 legal?
Damn I love PA. So glad I finally able to escape NY and now live in the endless mountains of a free Commonwealth.
Bambo is in troble. hehehehehehe
Break out the SKS!
what? used my semi for turkey for years. and i haven’t used it but i saw no restrictions on using the shotgun for deer.
