The bill amends Title 18 of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes regarding the sale or transfer of firearms. Specifically, it modifies Section 6111(f)(1) and (2) by redefining the term "firearm" to include any weapon designed to expel a projectile through explosive action, while removing the previous stipulation that limited the definition to certain types of firearms based on barrel length and overall length. The deletion of the clause that specified the application of subsections (a) and (c) to specific firearms indicates a broader interpretation of what constitutes a firearm under this law.

Additionally, the bill abrogates any inconsistent provisions in 37 Pa. Code, ensuring that the new definitions and regulations align with the amended statute. The changes are set to take effect 60 days after the bill's passage.
