Re: Concealed Carry Question
Don't give them a reason to run a check on your firearm, problem solved.
Don't speed, don't jay-walk, don't look like the guy that just robbed the bank.

Re: Concealed Carry Question
All guns come with a bill of sale, keep it as proof of purchase.

Re: Concealed Carry Question
Just look like a good little subject and they hopefully won't have a reason to harass you? I think I'd rather just not get harassed due to me having inalienable rights and them respecting that.
I agree this is a smart idea, but it's annoying in principle. The burden of proof should be on THEM to prove we aren't in lawful possession, not the other way around.

Re: Concealed Carry Question
No concern on my part, as I maintain records on my firearms, and I can ID my firearms appropriately.
I'm just stating that as almost all of my firearms were NOT purchased as a PA resident, they won't have access to that bogus paperwork I am now required to fill out for PSP.
I do understand what you are saying though.

Re: Concealed Carry Question
There is a provision in PA law which allows the judge in a "return of property" case to award attorney fees against any department which fails to return any seized or found gun to the rightful owner, in the absence of justification for NOT returning it.
But you have to prove it's yours, either to the department or to the court.
Your testimony is some evidence. The fact that they took it from your possession is some evidence. The absence of it being listed as stolen, or any other evidence of an improper transfer, is also evidence. A receipt from seller to you would be better. In a husband/wife case, you should probably be co-plaintiffs.
But some judges, especially Philly judges, are reluctant to award fees. And you have to make the investment first, and hope to get it back later. Fronting $3K to get back your $250 gun is a hard choice.Attorney Phil Kline, AKA gunlawyer001@gmail.com
