    as theo said, she may borrow/carry his guns as long as she has her LTCF.
    for the letter of the law, if you desire it, see my bold/red:
    18 Pa.C.S. § 6115: Loans on, or lending or giving firearms prohibited

    (a) Offense defined.--No person shall make any loan secured by mortgage, deposit or pledge of a firearm, nor, except as provided in subsection (b), shall any person lend or give a firearm to another or otherwise deliver a firearm contrary to the provisions of this subchapter.
    (b) Exception.--
    (1) Subsection (a) shall not apply if any of the following apply:
    (i) The person who receives the firearm is licensed to carry a firearm under section 6109 (relating to licenses).

    (ii) The person who receives the firearm is exempt from licensing.
    (iii) The person who receives the firearm is engaged in a hunter safety program certified by the Pennsylvania Game Commission or a firearm training program or competition sanctioned or approved by the National Rifle Association.
    (iv) The person who receives the firearm meets all of the following:

    (II) is not prohibited from owning or possessing a firearm under section 6105 (relating to persons not to possess, use, manufacture, control, sell or transfer firearms).
    (v) The person who receives the firearm is lawfully hunting or trapping and is in compliance with the provisions of Title 34 (relating to game).
    (vi) A bank or other chartered lending institution is able to adequately secure firearms in its possession.
    (2) Nothing in this section shall be construed to prohibit the transfer of a firearm under 20 Pa.C.S. Ch. 21 (relating to intestate succession) or by bequest if the individual receiving the firearm is not precluded from owning or possessing a firearm under section 6105.
    (3) Nothing in this section shall be construed to prohibit the loaning or giving of a firearm to another in one's dwelling or place of business if the firearm is retained within the dwelling or place of business.
    (4) Nothing in this section shall prohibit the relinquishment of firearms to a third party in accordance with 23 Pa.C.S. § 6108.3 (relating to relinquishment to third party for safekeeping).
    ONE TO THE HEAD!!!!

    ... and of course you can transfer a handgun to a spouse, parent/child, or grandparent/grandchild (provided both live in PA and the recipient isn't "prohibited") with no paperwork whatsoever. In this case, the risk is that she'll consider it a gift and your dad will never see it again.

    What about a pistol from someone unrelated? Is it legal for me to carry my girlfriends Taurus PT111?

    If you have a LTCF any legal owner of a handgun can lend it to you.

    Thanks. I do have a LTCF, just wasn't sure if it would be an issue if I didn't own the handgun
