As an annual PA Deer Hunter, I was concerned
with the recent quote on numbers of PA gun accidents so I received the following
from an E-Mail to the Pennsylvania Game Commission. One should be aware
that over 1,000,000 (yes a million) hunters are in the PA woods on the first day
of Deer season!
The E-Mail follows:
"Our Bureau of Information & Education
can document 19 fatals and 443 nonfatal accidents from
1993-97.
DISCLAIMER:
In addition to
the general disclaimers in the PA Home Page, this response to your inquiry
should not be considered complete or final on legal interpretation. We
suggest that you consult your Digest of Hunting and Trapping Regulations or the
statute or regulations or discuss your question with a Game Commission
officer for a more definitive answer. Personnel at any Game
Commission office would be happy to assist
you."
