Don't make any waves please. If enough folks find good-enough reasons to change that law with suggestions here, then that's bad news for ML purchasers. Just be thankful it's not a firearm & leave "well-enough" alone.
I'm not trying to make any waves. Just didn't know after seeing that guy buy one without the check. I looked up on line what the Texas laws says and they are not considered a modern firearm but a antique firearm and thus does not require a back ground check. It also said that a felon can use a black powder rifle in Texas if it is not a rimfire and has to be something like a replica or something else that I didn't understand. Not sure since I know very little about them.
Also in Texas, a BB gun and pellet gun are not considered a fire arm since there is not explosion created to move the bullet.
Anyway, thanks for the info. Now I know why here in Texas anyone can go purchase a ML.
