Maybe this has been asked before, but are black powder guns considered fire arms? I though they were, but I was at Bass Pro Shops a while back and they had some starter packages on the counter and a guy pick one up and bought it w/o filling out any paperwork. Then I asked the worker and he said the are not classified as a fire arm b/c of the way the bullet is loaded and that anyone can buy then. He said you can even buy them over the internet. I am confused??? Doesn't make sence to me. Just wondering, since it was very confusing seeing this.
The guy also said that old hunters with past convictions are going to black powder since it isn't classified as a fire arm. Now I am really confused.
