Reply #8: You can buy muzzleloaders mail order with no FFL

[guntard]

For that reason I have often considered them non-firearms legally (at least according to Federal law; state law of course can be more restrictive).

But the JBTs have an arsenal of charges at their disposal if they want to nail a gun owner for frightening the sheep, starting with disturbing the peace.

Note: I still can't figure out how the CMP can ship battle rifles to your door with no FFL. I know there's some kind of Federal exemption, but no one has ever pointed it out to me, or explained why it still exists. Does Dianne Feinstein know about this?
