Title: HB 263 (i.e. 737)
Post by: TheBig1 on October 27, 2016, 12:52:51 PM

The House concurred with the Senate's Amendments (160-25).

It's unfortunate that we cannot jump for joy as the vast majority of the House and Senate approved this. It's a shame that this can happen and then ONE man can deny it.

Here's what's on FB

HARRISBURG, Pa. (WHTM) – The state House of Representatives has voted to remove a ban on hunting with semi-automatic rifles.
House Bill 263, sent to Gov. Tom Wolf’s desk for his signature on Thursday, also removes the ban on air- and gas-powered rifles.
The legislation doesn’t automatically allow the guns to be used for hunting, but it gives the Pennsylvania Game Commission the authority to regulate and allow their use during certain seasons or for certain animals.

I have zero faith in Wolf but I am praying anyway.
