Moving to PA end of this year, question on rifle

[DanGuy48]

So, we signed on the dotted line and, if nothing goes wrong, should be in PA by the end of the year. I only have a few guns left now, sold most things recently, but have a question about one, my SCAR 17S. I bought it new in Maryland some years ago but I believe the configuration now would be a problem in Maryland. Is it OK to bring into PA? I was reading that rifles are OK unless restricted by federal law. I’ve always worried first about Maryland law so not sure about federal laws.Please see pic at link.

BLACK RIFLE PORN

A Robinson M96 Expeditionary rifle. This is the closest thing to owning a Stoner 63 that I could afford. The magazine pouch is a genuine new old stock original Stoner 63 pouch. I haven't decided what I am going to do for sights yet. I had this Burris prism sight that I wasn't using for...

Each state is different unfortunately. So welcome to the landmines.

I don't see why your Scar 17 would be an issue for MD law. MAYBE MAYBE the factory muzzle break could be considered a flash hider because of the small prongs at the end and with the folding stock it would be an "assault weapon" but it looks MD legal to me. PA also has no AWB of any kind so as long as its got a 16 inch barrel its legal. If it's a registered SBR you just need to file a permanent ATF form 20.

Welcome to Pennsylvania!

If it is federally legal, it is PA legal.

Yep - It's my home state and I am absolutely jealous every time I visit a well provisioned LGS when visiting.

I was born and raised just outside Harrisburg.

A fellow Pennsyltuckian! My father's side is from just east of Harrisburg. I'm from a bit further west in Johnstown, originally.

I wasn't born in PA, but lived there from '76-'90......mostly around the Altoona/Hollidaysburg area. Was also in Pittsburgh for about 4 years.

Grice gun shop in Clearfield is a sight to see too..

Whereabouts you moving, I really like the Clearfield county north of 80 area. Have some friends up there we visit regularly..

Why do people post things like this? I really am curious. The op bought it legally, presumably isn't a felon and Pennsylvania has no idea what he has. Why put something like this on the internet? It just seems to me that common sense would dictate not doing so and, also, fúck the man

Pennsylvania doesn't give a sh*t what he has.

A return to PA was on my short list of places for the great escape but alas Festerman & Co. I have one move remaining in me and it has to count. Fondest childhood memories were driving with my uncle in his beetle from the Philly area to Bradford County where he had 200+- acres of basically raw land. Knew we were within a half hour when we passed Towanda.

Towanda is Bertha Butt’s other sister?

I know right? It sure sounds it. As a kid it gave me giggles to say it with emphasis on WAN. ToWANda! You piqued my curiosity and I searched. Towanda means burial ground in the Algonquian language.

Not universal. There are plenty of antis in office there

Understood but there aren't any laws there right now that have any bearing on this.

Makes sense. In SE PA and DE many of the names are from the Lenape (three syllable) people. I grew up in Hockessin.

Gettysburg area. My wife wants to stay fairly close to some of her cancer docs.
