Re: About Gun "Registration" or Transfers in PA
I am a current resident of NY. I have a CC permit and a REGISTERED .40SW handgun. (Very hard to get BTW) I am moving into the Wilkes-Barre area and I just want to be crystal clear on gun ownership in PA. I know I need a permit to carry the pistol concealed and in a motor vehicle, but is there any conditions on me keeping the pistol in my home until I get a permit?
I guess what I am asking is can I bring my pistol from NY into PA, keep it at my house until such a time that I can get my PA CC permit?
Thanks for the help.

Re: About Gun "Registration" or Transfers in PA
I was under the idea that Pennsylvania and many other states must destroy
registration documents after 30 days.
I am not sure about the Federal Government.
Any legal eagles out there that can shed light on this?

Re: About Gun "Registration" or Transfers in PA
There is NO registry in Pennsylvania. But there is a database that the state police maintain, on last known owners of handguns transferred within the commonwealth. The only reason the courts have not struck down this database for being an illegal registry is that the state police have testified that the database is inherently incomplete, due to not all handguns legally in the state being recorded via a transfer at an FFL (handguns can legally be brought into the state from someone moving into PA, also from nonresidents who are visiting, as well as handguns transferred between immediate family, and of course handguns which have been owned since before the transfer database existed).
Any mission, any conditions, any foe at any range.
Twice the mayhem, triple the force.
Ten times the action, total hardcore.

Re: About Gun "Registration" or Transfers in PA
there are no registration documents to destroy.
the state police do maintain a database of handgun transfers. they get the data from the application/record of sale. they are supposed to destroy that data within 72 hours, but they don't.
somehow, the PA supreme court said they could keep doing it even though it is blatantly against state law.
not sure what you are referring to by the 30 days thing.F*S=k

OH,
I really love that kind of political crap.
It's illegal but SOMEHOW it's allowed to exist.
Lawyers and politicians arew ruining this country.

Re: About Gun "Registration" or Transfers in PA
Does anyone have a link to the court documents & opinions that cover the PSP database?
The reference section on "case law" here is seriously lacking.

Re: About Gun "Registration" or Transfers in PA
This seems like a good spot to post my question:
Well, my grandpa recently passed away and his gun collection then became the property of my grandma. She then gave all the guns to mom, who let me and my and dad have any of the guns we wanted or were thought keeping. One of the guns I ended up with was his police issue revovler. I've searched around the internet and my understanding is that immediate family transfers do not have to be put in the "database". Is this correct? Also, if I don't transfer it will I get hasseled or anything by the police?
