Philadelphia LTCF question
Hello everyone,
I've just moved back to Philly! I've been shooting for a long time (and I'm an NRA certified pistol instructor) and I would like to finally get a LTCF.
My question is: the Application asks for your employer and employer's address. However, I am currently unemployed.
What should I put in that section?
I am also taking a few classes; should I put down my school info as employer and occupation as 'student'?
I really just don't want the application to be denied for something minor like this. Thanks in advance for all of your help.

Welcome to the Forum!!
I would leave it blank or write unemployed.
Legally you should not have any issue obtaining your LTCF (not a disqualifing issue); however, Philadelphia illegally makes their own rules when it comes to granting or denying you license. They are more like a may issue city
Good luck to ya and hope ya stick around!Fraggle09027 is not a lawyer. Any advice is just advice (my own 2 cents) and is not expressed or implied as legal advice.

Re: Philadelphia LTCF question
I was told by the Centre county sheriff's office that my non resident PA pistol permit was ok to be used to carry in the city of Philadelphia, with no problems when I ask them about it.? So what's the scoop is it ok to CC in that city or not?

Re: Philadelphia LTCF question
If you are an NRA pistol instructor why not just apply for a Florida CCW and avoid all the headaches of Philadelphia. Florida CCW is honored in PA regardless of where the permit holder resides. if you need assistance applying for a florida CCW I will be glad to help another NRA Instructor

Re: Philadelphia LTCF question
There's one thing a Florida Concealed Weapons License alone doesn't give you in Pennsylvania (or in any other state that has reciprocity with Florida), and that's coverage under the Federal Gun-Free School Zones Act:
18 U.S.C. § 922 (q) (2)
(A) It shall be unlawful for any individual knowingly to possess a firearm that has moved in or that otherwise affects interstate or foreign commerce at a place that the individual knows, or has reasonable cause to believe, is a school zone.
(B) Subparagraph (A) does not apply to the possession of a firearm -
(i) on private property not part of school grounds;
(ii) if the individual possessing the firearm is licensed to do so by the State in which the school zone is located or a political subdivision of the State, and the law of the State or political subdivision requires that, before an individual obtains such a license, the law enforcement authorities of the State or political subdivision verify that the individual is qualified under law to receive the license;
(iii) that is -
(I) not loaded; and(iv) by an individual for use in a program approved by a school in the school zone;
(II) in a locked container, or a locked firearms rack that is
on a motor vehicle;
(v) by an individual in accordance with a contract entered into between a school in the school zone and the individual or an employer of the individual;
(vi) by a law enforcement officer acting in his or her official capacity; or
(vii) that is unloaded and is possessed by an individual while traversing school premises for the purpose of gaining access to public or private lands open to hunting, if the entry on school premises is authorized by school authorities.
