The proposed law, House Bill 760, would require ALL firearms to be registered annually. The registration would cost $10 per gun each year.
Owners would have to provide two forms of photo identification and fingerprints.
On Wednesday, April 4, the Gun Registration Act of 2007 was introduced in the House. It was introduced by Representatives Angel Cruz (D-180), Rosita Youngblood (D-198), Cherelle Parker (D-200), Jake Wheatley (D-19), Lisa Bennington (D-21) and Lawrence Curry (D-154).

Under House Bill 760, all privately-owned firearms, with certain limited exceptions, would be subject to annual registration at a cost of $10 per firearm. This would include firearms owned privately by Pennsylvania law enforcement officers. In addition, the registration process would require two passport style photographs — taken within 30 days of the date of each application — and fingerprinting. The application form would require the applicant’s name, address - home and business - phone, birth date and social security number, as well as a description of each firearm. If the registration is denied, the firearms would be confiscated.
The legislation also requires the State Police to conduct a criminal background check and approve any firearm registration prior to the purchase of a firearm, in addition to the PICS/NICS check run by the State Police concurrent with each purchase.
Restrictions on possession of registered firearms would limit the use of firearms to the registrant’s “place of residence or business or while being used for lawful recreational purposes.” No definition of recreational purposes is written in the legislation.
