Re: Can I carry my father's pistol in PA.
You don't specify what you will carry when applying for a PA LTCF, so anyone's (legal) handgun is OK to carry. As for transferring ownership to you, your dad can give you the gun without recording it with the state if he wants, but if it makes him more comfy, than do it. Personally, I wouldn't, but I'm sort of paranoid about the government keeping tabs on every gun I own. Guns do not have to be registered in PA, and if someday the gunophobics decide all guns do have to be registered, I wouldn't mind having a few around that aren't on record with the state just for my own piece of mind.
