    Default New here, wanted to say hello!

    I hope this is the right place to do this so here goes....

    Hello, I am a new member, and hold a CC Permit in both NY and PA. NY is my primary state of residence. I had just recently joined because this forum is the best one I've seen for getting info for PA Gunsmiths, PA Dealers and discussion and posting of laws and regulations pertaining to the state of PA; and it's full of good people from what I've seen here so far. I've been visiting for quite some time and have finally joined due to my new carry permit in PA.

    That's pretty much it!

    Later,

    Dan

    It's the wrong forum, but we all do it from time to time. :innocent:

    Sounds like your reasons for joining are almost exactly like mine, except I had recently moved to PA from MD.

    Welcome!
    While many claim to support the right, precious few support the practice.

    Welcome Dan.
    You are officially the only person I have ever seen claim to have a NY carry permit. LOL

    Haha, you'd think that would be a great honor having a NY permit, seeing it takes months and the release of all your info and first child to get it. It took me 2 weeks to get the PA permit, probably one of the only states that still believes in the Second Ammendment, and the people's right to own and carry (mostly).

    Oh, we have our problems too.
    Since I moved here from IL though I look at the laws here like I have gone to heaven. LOL

    In all seriousness, it took me a couple of years to figure out which PA gun laws I found most offensive.
    Now that I have been here for a while I keep my eyes open and have a pretty good relationship with my elected officials.
    Maybe we can get some of the remaining bad laws changed for the better before I move away

    I hear you, the PA laws are like a dream come true to the NY pro-gun, law abiding residents. Was IL that bad? I know nothing of it (although I think pistols are banned in Chicago like they were in Washington, right?). NY is now again facing a .50 caliber ban, which includes muzzleloaders and shotguns. If we get it (which I seriously hope we don't) we'll be hunting with .410s for a while.
