This post sounds like you are attacking my post and me.
Flaming me into a fight.

I am merely a interpreter - not the person that wrote the law.
In theory, if a person had a 16 gauge shell in their pocket and put it in their 12 gauge shotgun and did not know that it was a 16 gauge shot shell, it could fall down the barrel and when the gun did not go bang, they could put a 12 gauge shell behind it and blow themselves up.

Or if they had a rifle shell that was not the same shell - a similar thing could happen. As far as I am concerned, I don't care what happens to you so you can carry what ever you please.

Here is their web site - if you think that their laws are stupid, maybe you should write them a letter and explain your theorys on safety and hunting.

I thank god every day that ever licensed hunter in Pennsylvania is required to attend and pass a hunters safety course before they are allowed to purchase a hunting license. This persons beliefs only reassures me that there are hunters in the woods elsewhere that should not be there.
