The commonwealth of Pennsylvania has 19 official state symbols, ranging from a state fossil to an electric locomotive.

The state named the firefly its official insect decades before the Brown Marmorated Stinkbug emerged. Milk is the official beverage, and the ruffed grouse is its game bird.

One thing the Keystone State doesn't have is an official gun, but one local legislator would like to take a shot at it.

It's funny that they used a picture of a couple of Pedersoli Pennsylvanias, made in Italy.

Gratuitous pic of my Pedersoli Pennsylvania:

I grew up in Pennsy, and I support this measure.

Heck, maybe I'll even buy one & go kill something.

It's not where it was made, it's the design that counts.

(plus, hand-made rifles are

in price).

But percussion, I think. Flint is

There is a lot that I miss about PA. Good people there. Not counting the NJ annex shithole on the east.

I will be compelled to buy whatever they settle on.

How about a S&W Model 27?

Having hunted deer in PA I'd say Remington 700.
