One gun-related measure currently being debated by lawmakers is called the "Florida loophole," which enables Pennsylvanians who are denied a permit to carry a concealed weapon in the state to still do so if another state approves a permit. "Basically the standard for carrying a concealed gun would be the lowest standard in the country," said David Kairys, a professor at Temple's Beasley School of Law. "We in Pennsylvania, and particularly in Philadelphia and Pittsburgh, would lose the power even on the state level to do anything about this," he said.
