SBR for hunting yotes
I'm having some difficulty finding the law surrounding the use of a sbr for hunting coyotes. I know an AR pistol is off limits, but what about an sbr? Curious to see if any of you may know.
Thanks

This is the closest thing I can find in the hunting and trapping digest from the PGC. Maybe it's somewhere else on their site but I'm not seeing it currently.

Didn't a law pass where big game can be taken with a rifle (semi auto).

Re: SBR for hunting yotes
Pens87 I appreciate the link and I've read that before. However I'm looking for something alittle more concrete to present to a warden if stopped! You know, perhaps the law, and not some guys opinion on a forum. I asked on this forum hoping someone could sight an exact definition, or statue on the question? A document I can present to a warden. I've hunted in alot of different states and pa is by far the most vague!
Thank you!

Re: SBR for hunting yotes
I contacted my local office and they told me sbr's are good to go. However they wouldn't tell me as to where I could find that info. I found that to be quite funny. Pcg leaves alot to be desired when it comes to defining certain legalities when it comes to hunting. Thanks for the help.

Re: SBR for hunting yotes
I would copy and paste from the PGC "Hunting & Trapping" digest but that feature is apparently disabled.
Here is a link: http://read.nxtbook.com/pgc/huntingt...furtaking.html
You have to read in the furtaking section: "Firearms for hunting furbearers"
Yes it specifically spells out for coyotes that a semi-auto and manually operated rifles are authorized.
Next if that hasn't appeased your desire for letter of the law, you can then look up and define what a rifle is: You can start with your Post that you are using an "SBR", What does that stand for again?"It seems that the Constitution is more or less guidelines than actual rules"
