Capacity Limit for deer?

[swack]

Is there any sort of capacity limit for deer hunting in PA?

I searched the regulations section of the Game Commission web site and did not see any. The only limit i found was for turkey.

I am asking this for rifle, handgun and shotgun hunting.

I do not believe there is a limit but I just want to be safe.

Thanks

If you mean magazine capacity. Not that I am really aware of but most legal firearms for deer hunting have small capacities anyway. I only need one shot anyway

No. At least not in the booklet that gets passed out w/ your license. Maybe the WCO who frequents this site can correct me if I'm wrong.

You're limited to 3 shots for turkey, small game, and waterfowl. At a PGC range it's 3/rifle and 6/pistol. That's all the limits I can remember.

Are you planning to hunt deer w/ a pump action AR w/ a 30 round magazine?

I wouldn't say "most". I'd say "many." I know my Henry's Big Boy holds 10 rounds. I can think of at least half a dozen others w/ more than 4 round capacity off the top of my head.

There are none for deer. ....except if you qualify with a disability to use a semi-auto then there is a magazine 4rd capacity limit with them.

Does such an animal exist???
I know a pump AK exists, but never heard of a pump AR......

Remington made a pump in 223 that took regular AR magazines. Grice's was advertising them as a 'poor man's AR' earlier this year when real AR's were nuts. I think they came with a black or camo stock and some were available with a ghost ring sight. $400 or so I think, but I don't have the flyer anymore.

Also, I think you can get extended magazines for the Rem 760/7600 that hold 10 rounds. Not quite a pump AR but a hell of lot of firepower, especially in 30-06.

Ok so that may be a little too hopeful. I take my shooting skill with my weapons and taking clean shots much more seriously than I used to. One shot one kill so far this year.
