What is the difference between a License to Carry Firearms and a Sportsmans Firearm permit?
An individual who is 21 years of age or older may apply for a License to Carry Firearms by submitting a completed application to their local Sheriff’s Office along with the required fee. The Sheriff has 45 days to conduct an investigation to determine an individual’s eligibility to be issued a license. The issuance of a License to Carry Firearms allows individuals to carry a firearm concealed on or about their person, or in a vehicle throughout this Commonwealth. An individual who is 18 years of age or older and is licensed to hunt, trap, or fish, or who has been issued a permit relating to hunting dogs, may apply for a Sportsman’s Permit by submitting a completed application along with the required fee to the County Treasurer’s Office. The permit shall be issued immediately and be valid for a period of five years from the date of issue for any “legal firearm,” when carried in conjunction with a valid hunting, fur taking or fishing license, or permit relating to hunting dogs.
