The requirement is absurd - anyone who fails to report can assert a Fifth Amendment defense to not answering questions about their gun - furhter, the requirement violates the PA Uniform Firearms Act' preemption providion at Section 6120 as well as its ban on registration (being forced to fess up to previous ownership is of course registration).

Pennsylvania: Lancaster Intelligencer Journal - Telephone Poll PEOPLE POLL: REPORTING LOST OR STOLEN HANDGUNS
Thursday, October 23, 2008
[align=left]The Lancaster Intelligencer Journal is taking a telephone poll concerning the latest activity from Mayors from across the state pushing anti-gun ordinances requiring the mandatory reporting of lost or stolen handguns.
These ordinances are in direct violation of Pennsylvania's preemption law. State preemption regulating firearms was enacted by the legislature to avoid the possibility of 2,639 separate firearm laws across the Commonwealth. Without preemption there would be a myriad of local firearm laws making compliance impossible for law-abiding gun owners.
Please call the Lancaster Intelligencer Journal People Poll today and voice your opinion. Calls will be received until 6p.m. Friday.[/align]
