    16" is legal title 1 rifle length per federal law.
    Regardless of the type of rifle.
    Shorter than 16" is an SBR and must be NFA registered. SBR's are legal (when properly reg'd) in PA.

    Has to have a barrel length of at least 16" and an overall length of 26."

    "Firearm." Any pistol or revolver with a barrel length less
    than 15 inches, any shotgun with a barrel length less than 18
    inches or any rifle with a barrel length less than 16 inches, or
    any pistol, revolver, rifle or shotgun with an overall length of
    less than 26 inches. The barrel length of a firearm shall be
    determined by measuring from the muzzle of the barrel to the
    face of the closed action, bolt or cylinder, whichever is
    applicable.
