What your license to carry in PA allows you to carry is not a license to use any firearm to hunt. It is not legal to use a semi auto handgun to shoot most game animals in PA. You can carry them for self defense but not for hunting most game animals. I usually carry my S&W 40 while hunting but is for self defense only, if I am hunting with a handgun it will be a .357 revolver or a .45 Colt handgun, and I will leave the semi auto at home. Your .44 mag and your M&P 40 are not legal to shoot bear during the muzzleloader season or the archery season to take game. The question was have you ever used your CCW to hunt, the answer needs to be specific with the legal firearms to hunt with under the Game and wildlife code in PA.
