This should end the question as to whether or not it is legal to use weapons other than muzzle loaders for hunting bears during the special firearms season October 24-26. From the game commission's website: www.pgc.pa.gov/Pages/AlertDetails.aspx

Wait.....but if your archery hunting for a buck..... Bear archery statewide starts on Oct.28. There are 4 management areas that start earlier.

So I take it archery equipment would also be legal during this muzzleloader bear season if you choose to handicap yourself even more using a lesser arm ?

Yes, and also no. Now that the season in question is over it is a moot point anyway, but here is the relevant part of the blame commission's press release that made it all as clear as mud.

So... If I was out of valid deer tags, had a muzzleloader license, archery license and a bear tag I could of used archery equipment all last week to harvest a bear?

No, you could not have used archery equipment the whole last week. You could have used archery equipment to hunt bears only during the three days at the end of the early muzzle loader week (that special weapons season for us old and young folks), and then, only if you were either a senior license or junior license holder. Read the first part of my previous post carefully this time.
