[QUOTE="SBMF 2015, post: 1773652, member: 39695"] [B]Can I use a lever-action/bolt-action/pump-action/semi-automatic rifle for hunting deer in Illinois?[/B] Effective Jan. 1, 2023, any rifle chambered in a legal caliber and either manufactured or modified to be a single shot (capable of holding only one round in the magazine and chamber combined) may be used to hunt deer. A gun shall be considered a single shot if there is no magazine in the possession of or in close proximity to a hunter in the field, and the gun can only hold a total of one round. Modification of a rifle originally manufactured as a repeater (a lever action/bolt action/pump action/semi-automatic, etc.) to a single shot can take many forms, including but not limited to: [LIST] [*]not having the detachable magazine in possession or close proximity, [*]removing internal magazine springs and followers, [*]using a plug to block the magazine tube, [*]purchasing "0 round" magazines, [*]or modifying the receiver or internal magazine of the rifle. [/LIST] Hunters may not be in possession of or in close proximity to a magazine that is capable of making a rifle not a single-shot firearm. [/QUOTE]
