An Act amending Title 18 (Crimes and Offenses) of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, in general provisions, further providing for definitions; in inchoate crimes, further providing for prohibited offensive weapons; in assault, further providing for discharge of a firearm into an occupied structure; in theft and related offenses, further providing for definitions; in riot, disorderly conduct and related offenses, further providing for prohibiting of paramilitary training; in firearms and other dangerous articles, further providing for definitions, for persons not to possess, use, manufacture, control, sell or transfer firearms, for firearms not to be carried without a license, for prohibited conduct during emergency, providing for 3-D printed firearms and further providing for sale or transfer of firearms, for firearm sales surcharge, for registration of firearms and for licensing of dealers.

AI Summary

This bill amends Pennsylvania's Crimes and Offenses law to address several firearm-related provisions. It adds definitions for "3-D printed firearm" and "3-D printer," and expands the definition of "firearm" to include 3-D printed firearms across various sections of the law. The bill also creates a new section prohibiting the use of 3-D printers to create firearms without a federal manufacturing license, and imposes penalties for violations. Additionally, the bill makes technical amendments to existing definitions and provisions related to firearms, including those concerning prohibited offensive weapons, discharge of firearms into occupied structures, theft and related offenses, and the regulation of firearms and firearm dealers.
