Why is the truimph not legal?
Hey, I'm in MA, most firearms aren't legal here. [:@]
According to the MA laws, 'hinge action (break open) muzzleloaders are NOT permitted.' According to everyone I could talk to about this, including gun shop owners, DFG guys, and reps from T/C, this indeed makes the Triumph illegal in MA during primitive firearms season. I hunt with an Omega.
This makes absolutely no sense, there is minimal difference between the actions on the Triumph and the Omega, but there you have it.
(Even more confusing: it's legal to hunt with a Triumph during shotgun season, but not during primitive firearm season.)
