AI Summary

This bill amends Title 18 (Crimes and Offenses) of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes to provide new definitions for "3-D printed firearm" and "3-D printer," and to include these terms in the existing definitions of "firearm" across various sections of the law. It also adds a new section prohibiting the use of a 3-D printer to create a firearm or any part of a firearm without a federal manufacturing license, and requires the inclusion of a manufacturer's number on any firearm created with a 3-D printer. Violations of these provisions can result in felony charges. The bill further amends existing sections related to the sale, transfer, and registration of firearms to include 3-D printed firearms within the definition of "firearm."
