Yes. You must have a concealed carry permit in order to carry concealed (it's a third degree felony if you are not licenced), and unlicenced open carry is permitted, except while in vehicles, the city of Philadelphia, or any place prohibited by local statute.

No. Under Pennsylvania law, 18 PA.C.S. 6118, “Subsection (a) [stating that this subsection does not apply to antique firearms] shall not apply to the extent that such antique firearms, reproductions or replicas of firearms are concealed weapons as provided in section 6106 (relating to firearms not to be carried without a license), nor shall it apply to the provisions of section 6105 (relating to persons not to possess, use, manufacture, control, sell or transfer firearms) if such antique firearms, reproductions or replicas of firearms are suitable for use.” Accordingly, if you are prohibited pursuant to 18 PA.C.S. 6105, you cannot possess antique firearms, even though federal law would allow you.
