Re: Definition of "Concealed CaRRY"
If the popo can see it as worn (I am not discussing wind-blown shirts, etc.) it is not concealed.
I carry my gov't 1911 in a hand made (my hands, thankyouverymuch) crossbreed clone IWB between 3:00 and 3:30. Even with it set deep enough to juuuuust allow my middle finger between the frontstrap and my belt, there is as much gun visible as not.
I can tell you 100% that SEPTA police consider what I do open carry: http://forum.pafoa.org/showthread.php?t=216917
My 2¢
YMMV
etc...

Re: Definition of "Concealed CaRRY"
Take special note, a person has been convicted in PA of carrying concealed even when he was carrying openly because he purposely and intentionally turned his body away, thus obstructing view of the handgun. That case focused on the intent to hide the firearm.

Re: Definition of "Concealed CaRRY"
Coming from PA and living in FL it is not as free here in FL. Every time open carry comes up you should see the newspapers. People are frantic. LEO agencies tell what horror will come from it. They portray it as the wild west. Yet most states have open carry. It is so stupid.

Re: Definition of "Concealed CaRRY"
It has been known for a long time that Pa was an open carry state. But rarely did you see someone open carry. The a few years ago a group of people began to bring back the practice. You would hear cries of "think of the children" or from gun owners " your gonna ruin it for the rest of us" Yes there were people stopped and yes there were stories in the paper.
The point is it is either legal or not.troll Free. It's all in your mind.

Re: Definition of "Concealed CaRRY"
As has been noted there is no specific definition of Concealed in the PA. Also as has been noted open carry is lawful. The only place I have ever seen any sort of definition of either is when it comes to a fire arm in an car or a truck. A fire arm in a car is considered to be concealed. Even if it is sitting on the dash board in plain sight it is considered concealed. You can transport your fire arm in your vehicle with out a permit but it must be unloaded and the ammo has to be stored in a separate locked container. With a permit you can transport the fire arm loaded. Within the state of course.

Re: Definition of "Concealed CaRRY"
Actually the law says concealed "or" in a vehicle require a LTCF. The gun isn't considered "concealed" because it's in a vehicle. They're two separate parts of the same statute.
§ 6106. Firearms not to be carried without a license.
(a) Offense defined.--
(1) Except as provided in paragraph (2), any person who carries a firearm in any vehicle or any person who carries a firearm concealed on or about his person, except in his place of abode or fixed place of business, without a valid and lawfully issued license under this chapter commits a felony of the third degree.
