ok so not in the car , but can i open carry ? feel free to oc?

If you walk to the Poconos from Jersey.

 

You can't have a handgun in a car in PA, not even unloaded in the trunk, without a CARRY permit from ANY state, regardless of whether PA recognizes that state's permit or not. The only exceptions are driving to and from the range, etc., similar to Jersey.

 

In Philly you need a permit PA recognizes, even to open carry on foot.

Sounds like PA laws are almost as bad as NJ.Sent from an undisclosed location via Tapatalk.

We have two bad laws in PA, that's one of them. Fortunately, we don't have shitty gun sign laws like AZ. And, unlike AZ, the only people that can't carry at the polls are COPS.

 

Be patient, I'm working on it.

So,a NJ resident holds a non resident permit from any state (Maine), and PA doesn't recognize non resident permits for concealed carry purposes. That non resident permit would still allow vehicular carry throughout PA (excepting Philly)?

You brought up a number of issues. PA does recognize non-resident permits (unlike Florida, Colorado, etc.), just not many Jersey people would be likely to have at the moment.

 

A Maine license (or any license) would allow not only car transport, but car carry, throughout PA, including Philly. But if you take it out of your car in Philly on public property you need a carry permit with reciprocity. If your Philly buddy has off-street parking, such as a driveway or an off-street parking spot, you are good either way.

Signs that no one pays attention to if you can find one, and every election here so far was mail-in ballots. Besides, anybody can carry here, open or concealed, resident or nonresident, without a permit. And guns loaded in truck racks just like the good Ole days in NJ 50 years ago.

So Mipa,

Can you do this in PA? Like AZ, in Texas I can have a loaded handgun or AR in my car without any license or permits. Hows that work in PA?

Can you carry a firearm in a restaurant that makes 52% of it's revenue from alcohol?

Nope,

 

If I am going into a bar that makes 52% revenue off of alcohol, I am going to drink and shouldn't be carrying any way. Drunk and gun don't mix well. 

 

BTW the way most restaurants in Texas are below the 52% level, so not much of an issue. This includes restaurants like Twin Peaks, Hooters, etc.

 

I love PA, my son lives there. I just don't know why Mipa has a thing about Texas.

I love Texas and believe it is a better state than PA in almost everyway. I have no thing about Texas. I didn't bring Texas up, you did.

    • We never let then inside.  Last re-evaluation was 6-7 years ago, wife politely told him that he was welcome to look around the property and he could look in the windows. He saw two white resin chairs in the basement and told her that this constituted a finished basement. And everything in the basement is bare concrete/ cinder block, and mechanical systems. Nothing finished about it. Ultimately he relented and I'm sure that was a ploy to coerce us to allow him in
    • I use an Alien Gear cloak tuck (IWB) with my Shield.  Neoprene back - in the summer it does feel warm but doesn't rub or chafe.   https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-iwb-holster.html Could also go with the shapeshift as it has multiple options - OWB/IWB, Appendix... https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-shapeshift-modular-holster-system.html
    • The  12-1 compression ratio L88 is long gone. This is GM's updated version. it might be  pump gas 10-1 engine The L88 was a aluminum head  cast iron block engine with a nasty solid lifter cam. the  ZL1 was a all aluminum  12 or 13-1 compression ratio engine with the best forged internal parts at the time and had a even nastier solid lifter cam 
    • I like my regular carry holster.  OWB leather with belt slots.  I've been carrying for over a year and it was comfortable and I hardly even noticed it.  I carry (usually) a Ruger LCP .380 - light, convenient, tiny. But...today I ended up taking it off an leaving it home after a few hours. I cut down a big maple tree a few days ago and I spent 3/4 of today loading and unloading firewood into the back of my truck and a trailer.  It was a warm day, I was dirty, tired, sweaty, and my holster was rubbing against my side.  The leather and exposed metal snap was no longer comfortable. I'm thinking about adding a layer of something to that part of the holster to soften the contact.  Anything insulating will make it worse.  I don't want a sweaty, hotter holster against my skin.  I'm imagining something thin, breathable, that won't absorb sweat, and softer than leather, metal snaps, and rivets.   But I have no idea what would work. I'm hoping somebody else has already figured this out and I can just do what they did. Any suggestions appreciated.
    • Check the primers on the ammo you didn't shoot yet. Are they fully seated? If the primer is not just below flush with the back of the case, the first hit can seat it better then the second hit ignites it.
