Export Industry
Is this really what Pennsylvania wants?
Pennsylvania rivals gun-friendly Southern states like Virginia or Georgia as a firearms exporter, according to data from the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.Each year, hundreds of guns seized from criminals in New York and New Jersey are traced back to Pennsylvania gun stores, the ATF statistics show.
In 2006, ATF traced 332 guns from New Jersey crimes back to Pennsylvania gun dealers. No other state sent more.
The same year, 461 Pennsylvania guns were seized in New York City and state. Only Virginia sent more crime guns there, ATF found.
