Pennsylvania HB1099 makes it illegal to manufacture, import, sell, ship, deliver, possess, transfer, or receive firearms made entirely of nonmetal.
Pennsylvania HB1099 amends Title 18 of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes by adding a section that criminalizes the manufacture, import, sale, shipment, delivery, possession, transfer, or receipt of firearms constructed entirely of nonmetal materials. These firearms must evade detection by common security screening devices, such as those used at airports. The bill defines a major component of a firearm as any nonmetal substance that, when removed from the firearm, makes it undetectable by walk-through metal detectors. Violating this provision constitutes a felony of the third degree.
