EDIT: INCOMPLETE should have been added to the title.
Wont' this be interesting because a firearm lower would require a 4473 in PA correct? Well, an 80% lower is NOT a firearm under Federal law which the 4473 follows. In other words, are they saying you CANT buy an 80% or they will create a new process for 80% in PA only. (like MD has the 77r). They bit off more than they can chew. A state I don't think can not make federal definitions.
Pennsylvania officials made a startling announcement Monday to up gun control restrictions by changing just what a “gun” is under state law.
State Gov. Tom Wolf and Attorney General Josh Shapiro, both Democrats, unveiled a legal opinion by the latter this week that classifies incomplete gun frames and parts such as “80 percent receivers” as firearms.
“My Office is taking the initial step of clarifying – through my official, legal opinion – that under Pennsylvania law, 80 percent receivers are firearms and can be treated, regulated, and enforced as such,” Shapiro said at a news conference with Wolf and State Police officials.
