    Default obtaining a PA non resident pistol carry permit

    can anyone recommend a PA county where I as a NYS resident can apply for a PA concealed carry ?
    I was told Centre County but it is 4 hours away
    how about a closer county ?

    You can apply at any county, the question is are there any that will not give you the license. I have read a few on here but don't remember what they were. I can tell you that Berks County Sheriff's office at the Reading airport is most cooperative. Hopefully someone else will be able to help you find one closer.

    FYI counties that do issue non res, typically require a non restricted NYS permit to apply.

    FYI. When I asked Berks about Non-Resident for my dad, I was told it has to be unrestricted. So for Pop, since Suffolk county NY has the administrative “sportsman’s” restriction, it was a no-go.

    My understanding is most counties along the border with NY either will not or play games.
    Most counties interior to the state no problem.. but you must have a resident state unrestricted

    IANAL nor am I employed by any issuing Sheriff's office ;-)

    Well, I suppose it is a good thing that it's now common knowledge that border counties are flagrantly violating the law in this regard.

    There is no penalty for them doing so...so...why not?
