Question about FTF Trade
Question about PA gun laws. I am a MD resident with a C&R License. I'm thinking of trading my reproduction paper cartridge Sharps for an Inland M1 Carbine owned by a PA resident. The M1 qualifies as a Curio and Relic, the Sharps falls in the same category as a muzzleloading rifle and requires no FFL. My understanding is that I can take possesion of the M1 in PA but what are PA firearms laws regarding the Sharps rifle?

Re: Question about FTF Trade
I may be incorrect, but If I read the law correctly, you can ship to the buyer just like any muzzleloader. They are not controlled like a modern firearm. However, even though it is a muzzleloader, it cannot be sold to a prohibited person.

Same if I travel to PA and I deliver the Sharps to the buyer?

Re: Question about FTF Trade
You're ok with taking in the M1 as a C&R.
The Sharps - if it is in deed the breech loading paper cartridge model (185* to 186* series models with percussion cap ignition), it is not a problem either. Its considered a "non-firearm" by the ATF because it doesn't use "fixed ammunition". That model can be mail ordered from a couple companies.RIP: SFN, 1861, twoeggsup, Lambo, jamesjo, JayBell, 32 Magnum, Pro2A, mrwildroot, dregan, Frenchy, Fragger, ungawa, Mtn Jack, Grapeshot, R.W.J., PennsyPlinker, Statkowski, Deanimator, roland, aubie515
