Why isn't Black Powder considered a Fire Arm???
Last month when I was at Bass pro shops, I noticed a guy buying a black powder rifle without a back ground check. I asked the salesman what's up with that and he said they are not considered a fire arm.Huh???????? Is this everywhere or what.
Then while I was at my deer lease the other day, I noticed a guy hunting with a black powder rifle and asked why he doen't just wait for BP season and hunt with a deer rifle. He said he has a conviction on his record from about 20 years ago and could not use a fire arm, but could use a BP. Nothing against this guy and he is even a very nice new christian man, but I am confused, which doesn't take much. Any thoughts??????
