is it legal to transport a ML with the Sabot and pellets in the gun as long as there is no primer??
It is in Missouri.
Edit- I found this on the bottom right of page 11 in the Illinois reg book.
http://dnr.state.il.us/admin/systems/Digest/Digest.pdf

Removal of percussion cap or removal of
prime powder from frizzen pan with frizzen
open and hammer all the way down or
removal of prime powder from flashpan and
wheel un-wound or removal of prime powder
and match with match not lit shall
constitute an unloaded
muzzleloading firearm
.


I also found this in the middle of page 9.

Transporting Firearms and Bow and
Arrow Devices in Vehicles
have or carry a shotgun, rifle, handgun
or airgun in or on any vehicle, conveyance
or aircraft the firearm or
airgun is unloaded and completely
enclosed in a case (see definition of
case on page 6) as noted in the
Migratory Game Bird Section, page 18
(Hunting From Floating Blinds). Also
see Hunting From Vehicles and Boats
(see above) and “Frequently Asked
Questions” (page 40).
could someone translate this for someone who doesn't know what a frizzen pan or a flash pan is?? can you transport a ML in Illinois that is loaded without a primer?
