If it's not ambiguous, then why is York one of, if not the only county that interprets the law that way?

Why do some counties refuse to issue to non-residents? Why do some require "in county" references? Why was Philadelphia revoking licenses for things like parking tickets, or having your gun stolen?
The law is clearly written, just because offices are choosing not to spend resources enforcing it, doesn't make it "ambiguous".
Oh, and if you want to use a constitutional quote against permits in PA, our own constitution provides a better one than the second amendment to the US one.
Seems pretty clear to me that the whole LTCF process is unconstitutional.
PA will no longer give a MD wear and carry permit holder a PA ccw if the maryland permit has ANY restrictions on it. Delaware county would not renew my PA ccw

Does that apply to all PA counties? The Sheriffs in PA have wide discretion in handling non resident permits. Some counties don't issue them at all.
Link to this in any sites for the counties? I had no issues at all when I got my pa permit in Lancaster.

Letter from Delaware county Sherriff saying that the application for a new Pa ccw was turned down due to the restrictions on the back of the Maryland permit.
I didn't give Adams Co a copy of the back of my MD Permit, they didn't ask. Don't know why it would matter.

Exactly
Additionally, The permit also says "Maryland Only" therefore any Restrictions are Maryland Only.

IT isn't "PA" doing it, it's the Delaware County Sheriff as you yourself point out.
Drive west a few miles to Lancaster and get it there without the hassle. In this regard, as a non-resident, you enjoy a freedom we PA residents do not. We are limited by statute to apply within our county of residence, you can apply anywhere in PA.
To be both blunt and crude, some PA Sheriffs are assholes. IMHO Delaware Co's is among them, and not even the worst. Some are much worse.
And many, if not most, are much better. This thread is full of the better ones. Take the hint.
My Maryland permit expires at the end of this month , and in today low and behold I get a call from York County the fine Sheriff tells me if I don't mail back my permit within 5 days of my Md. permit expiring they will swear out a warrant for my arrest .
He came on real strong as to put me in my place , I told him I would mail it back before May 31st and open carry in PA . He said yeah you can do that no problem , I am wondering why we have to play the games the song and dance .
Our country is whack , I am sure somewhere in PA there is a sanctuary town/city for illegals and free-loaders . It is almost comical . SMH

My PA permit expires on June 28th 2018 so about a month later , PA sent my renewal forms back to me and would not renew my permit till MD is done .
No chit , crazy .
But I told the officer I would open carry he said fine no problem
Go to Adams county and get your permit there. Stop playing games with Sheriff's that ....nm.

Is it actually written into state/local law that you have to mail them back the permit if your home state permit expires? If not how the hell can they issue a warrant (or even threaten one) if they have no evidence that you actually carried in PA while violating the conditions of the PA non-res permit?
Edit to add: I just renewed my Pa non-res a few weeks ago from Cumberland Co. and had to sign this form acknowledging that my permit would be revoked if I didn't send them documentation that my Md permit was renewed since it expires before my next Pa renewal. Based on the wording of that code I still don't see how they threaten a warrant for arrest if you don't, considering the code says shall not be "issued", which to me means at the time off application. I can see how it can be revoked, but an arrest warrant??

I think the point the Leo was making just by me having (possessing) the PA permit while my MD permit was expired ( or going to expire soon ) would be enough of me breaking some sort of law .
I must admit this is not the first time this has happened , he came on strong and stern . I told him I would not break any laws and will mail the PA permit back 5 days before my MD permit would expire .
It is a stupid game I know, but we all must play . I am not sure of the exact law or mandate but I am not fighting this guy when I will just open carry .
Seems dumb to me when I can OC .

Not defending the PA Sherriff’s apparent statutory overreach, but...
Isn’t the PA permit property of the Sherriff’s office?
