Carrying on expired LTCF
I searched the forums already but couldn't find anything though I do remember seeing something (on here or in a statute) that one could carry on an expired license for X period of time.
Does anyone have the law on that?"If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom ... go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels nor arms. May your chains set lightly upon you and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen." Samuel Adams

Six months.
http://reference.pafoa.org/statutes/...out-a-license/
18 Pa.C.S. § 6106: Firearms not to be carried without a license
(a) Offense defined.-- (1) Except as provided in paragraph (2), any person who carries a firearm in any vehicle or any person who carries a firearm concealed on or about his person, except in his place of abode or fixed place of business, without a valid and lawfully issued license under this chapter commits a felony of the third degree. (2) A person who is otherwise eligible to possess a [FN1] valid license under this chapter but carries a firearm in any vehicle or any person who carries a firearm concealed on or about his person, except in his place of abode or fixed place of business, without a valid and lawfully issued license and has not committed any other criminal violation commits a misdemeanor of the first degree.
(b) Exceptions.--The provisions of subsection (a) shall not apply to:
(12) A person who has a lawfully issued license to carry a firearm pursuant to section 6109 (relating to licenses) and that said license expired within six months prior to the date of arrest and that the individual is otherwise eligible for renewal of the license.While many claim to support the right, precious few support the practice.

No problem. Please understand that most folks, particularly law enforcement, are likely unaware of this element of the statutes, and you should predict having a bad day should you need to prove that you are currently licensed.
One of our folks just went through this...

I understand. It's just a little snafu in getting my new one in county since I moved.
