the PA UFA provides for a 60 day grace period...essentially, (assuming you still qualify to get an LTCF) you can carry on your current LTCF if it has expired no more than 60 days ago.

actually, let me correct myself. the grace period is 6 months, not 60 days (which is, of course, even better).

here is the actual text of the law with the relevant portion bolded:

§ 6106. Firearms not to be carried without a license.
(a) Offense defined.--
(1) Except as provided in paragraph (2), any person who
carries a firearm in any vehicle or any person who carries a
firearm concealed on or about his person, except in his place
of abode or fixed place of business, without a valid and
lawfully issued license under this chapter commits a felony
of the third degree.
(2) A person who is otherwise eligible to possess a
valid license under this chapter but carries a firearm in any
vehicle or any person who carries a firearm concealed on or
about his person, except in his place of abode or fixed place
of business, without a valid and lawfully issued license and
has not committed any other criminal violation commits a
misdemeanor of the first degree.

apply to:

representative of any such person, having in his possession,
using or carrying a firearm in the usual or ordinary course
of such business.

loaded and is in a secure wrapper from the place of purchase
to his home or place of business, or to a place of repair,
sale or appraisal or back to his home or place of business,
or in moving from one place of abode or business to another
or from his home to a vacation or recreational home or
dwelling or back, or to recover stolen property under section
6111.1(b)(4) (relating to Pennsylvania State Police), or to a

or maintenance of firearms or back or to a location to which
the person has been directed to relinquish firearms under 23
Pa.C.S. § 6108 (relating to relief) or back upon return of

furbearers or fish or returning from such places.
(10) Persons training dogs, if such persons are actually

individuals licensed to carry firearms under section
6109.
(ii) The Attorney General has determined that the
firearm laws of the state are similar to the firearm laws

What process?? I just renewed mine, went to the courthouse, got an application, filled it out, showed the nice lady my drivers license, surrendered my old one, gave her a twenty five dollar bill, they ran my check and handed me a new license. In and out in 20 minutes, took me longer to get through security.

No matter the county, renewing is the same process as if you were getting your first right then per each county's process. file out form, background check, wait if Sheriff has that as a policy, etc..

I've heard that some counties make you wait days or weeks, is that true?

My county actually sends out notices that say hey dude your permit is gonna expire, cmon down and reup it. Well, words to that effect.

I was told 6-10 weeks when I filled out my app here in Philly.

gave her a twenty five dollar bill

Really? When did they start making them? Knowing my wallet, I would have had to give her two elevens and a three.

AAAAhhhhh, now I see.

Now I have seen the threes. They are the ones with Slick Willy's picture on the front.
