RE: So did modern MLing start?
Yeah I'm all for taking the law to it's limit, thats what intriuged me with the muzzle loader. The other night at the gun store when I was buying my Uberti I met a Marine stationed at camp Pendleton from New York and he was saying they are a muzzle loader state. I actually had never heard of that and although i don't know the effective range of a 12 guage slug it can't be anywhere near 200 yards. I think the word "loophole" may have a bad conotation but I see it as an ingenious way to use the law in your favor. Another interesting tidbit is that I believe Cabellas can ship them directly to the customer bypassing the FFL dealer. There are many cool things about these guns that have my credit card starting to vibrate.
