IAW, if you loan a firearm to someone without a LTCF, you had best know that person very well.
This is simply not correct, and very dangerous legal advice.
Under current P a. law, it is absolutely prohibited to loan a firearm to someone (outside of the exceptions of ยง6115), even if they are not a 'prohibited person'.

(1) Subsection (a) shall not apply if any of the following apply:
(ii) The person who receives the firearm is exempt from licensing.
IANAL but if a person is carrying openly, then the whole section on licensing is inapplicable ( except in Philadelphia, in a vehicle, or during a proclaimed emergency).

The section of the UFA on loads is 18Pa.C.S.6115
http://paopencarry.org/uniform-firearms-act#6115
It is NOT part of the licensing section (6109). As the rest of the UFA it is a restriction in and of itself, regardless of licensing.
It is unlawful to "lend" a firearm (by 18Pa.C.S.6102 definition which is a handgun or SBR/SBS) to anyone. Exceptions include LTCF holders.

I agree. While the technicalities of convoluted statutes are debated, all too often the relevant section of our supreme law (Article I, Section 21 of the Pa. Constitution) is disregarded.
