Pennsylvania Firearm Rights, Disability & Relief Quicksheet

Pennsylvania Firearm Law Distilled to One Page

So much effort into one little page

I often receive questions from clients and other lawyers regarding firearm rights.  As such, I decided to try to distill Pennsylvania Firearms Law, Sections, 6105 & 6109 down to one easy to reference page.

The original 2020 quick sheet condensed a complicated subject and is retained only as historical commentary.  To fit everything onto one page some information needed to be condensed for brevity.  For example, there are some cases when a someone with a juvenile record can obtain firearm disability relief prior to reaching the ages of 30 and 28 but it just wouldn't fit on the page.  There are also other rare circumstances when someone may be prohibited from possessing a firearm that are not covered by the quicksheet.

Facing this issue now? A consultation can organize the problem, identify deadlines, and outline realistic options. Call (484) 548-0529 or schedule a consultation with James Madsen.

The former quick sheet was necessarily incomplete and should not be used to decide whether a person may possess, purchase, or carry a firearm but always conduct your own research or refer to a qualified Lehigh Valley Firearms attorneys for complete and accurate answer.

Use the current text of 18 Pa.C.S. §§ 6105 and 6109, applicable federal law, and case-specific records before making any decision about possession, purchase, or carrying.
