A flintlock luger?

You do not need a license to own a black powder firearm. They are considered "antiques" regardless of the age of the firearm, since they do not fire self contained cartridges. For firearms that do fire self contained cartridges, the cutoff year is 1898. You just need to be at least 18, or have someone 18 or older to purchase the firearm. No licenses or permits for you.

@MrMKH2010 I've been shooting BP for 25 years, at least in part because of the lack of annoying paperwork requirements.

@LRooster4Prez The heavy-barrel sniper rifles from the Civil War were under-lock models, with false muzzles.

Snappy looking pistol. Where do you buy one ? Or do you assemble it from a kit ?

Why is the lock on backwards?

@MrShamelessone Well thats convenient!
This is a custom pistol made by Rob Lewis of Ohio. It is the kind we shoot
at the NMLRA Nationals at Friendship Indiana. Everybody shoots these type.
It's main use is for competition. If someone wants to shoot more traditional
type looking you can. There are matches for those type.

It is made out of modern steel, yes. But the design is still the same. Loads the
same, shoots the same as would a 200 year old.

patch and "0" Buckshot which is .323. This is a .32 cal.
