May fully automatic firearms be used for hunting?

True
False

The correct answer is: False

The use of fully automatic firearms for hunting is prohibited in Arkansas. The reasoning behind this regulation centers on wildlife conservation, safety, and fair chase principles. Fully automatic firearms can fire multiple rounds in quick succession, which can lead to over-harvesting and disrupt the balance of wildlife populations. Moreover, they pose significant safety risks, as the rapid discharge of ammunition increases the chances of accidents, both to the hunter and to others in the vicinity. Regulations that limit the types of firearms used for hunting ensure that hunters engage in a manner that promotes responsible and ethical hunting practices. This way, laws are designed to maintain a sustainable environment for wildlife while also ensuring public safety.
