My ffl was very helpful. He called the permit office and convinced them it was ok. Had my permit card in the mail a few days later.
The new card says “frame only” where the caliber is usually listed. Will I need to get that changed when I finish assembling it, or am I good to go? How would I...
Has anyone here added a pistol frame to their permit in Erie county? I just tried this morning, but they wouldn’t do it because my receipt from the ffl said “frame only” and didn’t list a caliber. I’m going to ask the ffl to change the receipt, but he doesn’t open till Wednesday.

The first spot is around the magazine catch retainer. There’s a chunk missing where the retainer pushes on the frame.
The second spot is on the left side thumb safety hole. It’s...
Thanks for all the reply’s. It does looks closest to the pacific that enigma posted a picture of. Looks like it operates the same way too, with the handle being pulled up to actuate to ram. Seems like it’s only meant for pistol cartridges, there’s not enough room for a 30-06 cartridge.
I’ve...
Can anyone ID this press? I don’t see any manufacturers marks on it. It has a built in .45 or 30-06 shell holder on the ram. I’m pretty sure it’s too short to fit 30-06 in it though
