Two members of Congress from Texas and one from Florida have filed a bill they say will cut down on drug cartel violence by banning .50-caliber rifles in America.
You're viewing a single thread.
Even black powder?
I get it, but I think muzzle loafers deserve an exception. I don’t care who you are, if you bring a muzzle loader to a fight you deserve to use it*.
*so long as it isn’t a track-mounted muzzle loader
Muzzle loaders aren't firearms, tho. Or at least fly under vastly different regs.
Black powder weapons aren't legally considered firearms. You can order them in the mail with no background check.
What are they considered if not firearms, then? Genuine question..
"Firearm" is a legal definition. It's not that they're considered something else, it's just that they don't fit the legal definition of a "firearm".
Don't look at me. Look at the ATF and their weird-ass arbitrary rules and definitions.
Thank you.
Not the ATF, Congress who wrote the laws.
