In PA, we have preemption which prevents places like Philly from enacting its own anti-gun laws. Also the right to bear arms is specifically mentioned in the Pennsylvania Constitution. Our state constitution is written slightly clearer than the US Constitution (although I think there is nothing to be confused about with the US Constitution's 2nd Amendment). Our state constitution says:

The right of the citizens to bear arms in defence of themselves and the State shall not be questioned.
