Allentown Show

Recommended Posts

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?

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.

lets see, spend money on ammo or on gas.

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,

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.
