I seem to remember reading that smoothbore muzzle loaders were Non- DD. Is that correct?
I want an old pre-1900's style cannon or mortar. |

It's all about the fixed ammo. Fixed ammo? It's a firearm. Not fixed ammo? Not a firearm. Mike (scratches head) Hokay. Yup. We should create a "whatzit?" flowchart. 1. Can it take a fixed cartridge? If no, it's not even legally a firearm. If yes, it could be a firearm. Go to question #2. 2. Was it made before 1898? If yes, it's not legally a firearm because it's an antique under the Gun Control Act of 1968. If no, it's a firearm. Go to question #3. 3. Etc., etc., etc. Mike |
