autoxnyc 4 Posted July 10, 2010 I went to the Forks of Delaware show in Allentown today. This show is HUGE, must have been several hundred tables there. A lot of C&R stuff, a lot of WWII rifles to pick from. They had crates of Yugo Mausers and Mosins there as well. $129 for laminated stock 91/30 and $115 for regular stock. I was there for some AR stuff, they wouldn't sell me a stripped AR lower because I'm from NJ. Does anyone know if it's legal for me to buy a stripped AR lower at a PA gunshow?

junkmanted 54 Posted July 11, 2010 I think PA treats the AR as a pistol as far as transfers so maybe thats why but I could be wrong Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pizza Bob 1,488 Posted July 11, 2010 I think PA treats the AR as a pistol as far as transfers so maybe thats why but I could be wrong that was true, however if i recall, someone on PA forums mentioned they struck that down. What they stopped was the use of PA's separate handgun form when purchasing "pistol=gripped" firearms. The PASP waaaay overstepped their authority here. This was in response to the 4473 changing to reflect if a receiver only was being sold/transferred. PA still treats AR receivers as handguns, which is why they couldn't sell you one at the show - as junkmanted surmised. Adios, Pizza Bob Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PK90 3,573 Posted July 11, 2010 NOT a PA thing. It has always been a Federal Law that ONLY long guns can be purchased out of one's state of residence. Receivers and handguns are not long guns. The 4473 was changed to reflect the law. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
