rattus58,

I asked you in my prior post of May 30, 2007, about paragraph 4,"Do you think crossbows should be legal in the 6-week PA archery deer season?" I think the crossbow is a bow and should be permitted in the archery deer season. A crossbow is more akin to a bow than a muzzleloader, in my view; not many muzzleloaders shoot arrows (bolts). Also, both are short-range arms compared to a rifled flinter.

As for your flintlock question, my view is that if it is LEGAL in our (PA) after-Christmas deer season, then use it.

We have distinct seasons here and I am glad we have the several weeks after Christmas for Flintlock arms, only.
