I read the article after I posted, a $100 says it weren't even loaded. Do they have a clue as to how long it takes to load that thing.🤣
Ridiculous.
Glad I reside down south.

Page 23 says:
"Black powder pistols are exempt from the license to purchase/pistol sales record requirement unless they take a modern cartridge."
Wouldn't that make any flintlock legal to send without an FFL?
