Carry issue in PA

Posted: 3/27/2006 6:01:49 PM EDT

I have read the page on packing.org for PA but as long as it dont have a sign saying you cant carry you can carry it in there right? I know you cant carry in state parks, schools, and state buildings. What does the signs really look like I have never seen one? Thanks

There is no standard sign. Any private property can post whatever sign they want.

BTW, you can carry in a school if you have a CCW. I do it all the time.

I live in PA and I have never seen a sign. Signs hold no legal bearing in PA, just because someone post a NO Guns Allowed sign it doesn't mean shit. You can still go into the place with your gun but if they find out you are carrying and ask you to leave then you have to leave but other than that there is no legality behind any sign.

PA is one of the best states for the amount of places you can carry in/at

Other Lawful Purpose seems to allow you to carry into a school, but if you are discovered, you WILL be arrested on a felony count and will end up being a test case. It's your call.

I also wouldn't carry in any school. My understanding of the law is you can't carry in primary and secondary schools but you can cary at colleges and you can not carry in court houses.
