Still have to obey the laws of Pa. when in that state, therefore you must be 21 years old and with a valid/recognized permit to legally carry concealed and/or OC in a vehicle. So if you are not yet 21, neither a Maine nor NH permit will help you in Pa.

Not quite true. One must be 21 yrs of age in order to obtain a PA LTCF.

THere is no age requirement for permits that PA honors...and in the case of transporting in a vehicle:

PA 18 ss 6106

(11) Any person while carrying a firearm in any vehicle, which person possesses a valid and lawfully issued license for that firearm which has been issued under the laws of the United States or any other state.

Does not state anything about age either.

I know the age thing was addressed, but even PA's own laws provide for those under 21, but older than 18 to conceal while hunting, fishing, trapping, and dog training via the Sportsmans Permit. While that isn't full blown concealed carry, you can conceal and vehicle carry to, from, and during those sporting activities with the SP.

The lawful age of possession in PA is 18, not 21. The law is absent on declaring an age to conceal, only an age to be eligible for a LTCF. If you have a permit/license that is recognized by PA, and if you are 18, you can carry concealed or in a vehicle.
