In Pennsylvania, which of the following firearms is legal for deer hunting?

Rimfire rifles
Automatic rifles
Shotguns with slugs
Air rifles

The correct answer is: Shotguns with slugs

Deer hunting in Pennsylvania is subject to specific rules and regulations. While air rifles, rimfire rifles, and automatic rifles are prohibited for use in deer hunting, shotguns with slugs are allowed. Air rifles may not have enough power to take down a deer, while rimfire rifles and automatic rifles are excluded because they are considered to be less safe and may cause unnecessary harm to the deer or other hunters.
