I noticed there’s no good summary out there on the legislative history of Pennsylvania’s Uniforms Firearms Act, which is the section of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes that relate to firearms. I thought it would be worthwhile to go through and offer a legislative history of this act from the passage of right-to-carry in 1988 to the present time.

Part 1: Act 158 of 1988 - Right to Carry
Part 2: Act 68 of 1989 - Firearms in Vehicles
