Good discussion, so i heard back from MSP who stated BP are not a firearm hence do not fall under any firearm laws BUT MAY fall under ‘dangerous weapon’ category which is out of their purvey, contact a lawyer.
So i followed up, looked at the ‘dangerous weapons’ law which is VERY specific as to...
And, I appreciate the reply. However, What DNR thinks is/maybe different from what BaltCountyPD think, or Harford Sherrifs, or Troopers, or MDTA toll cops think, or the good ole boys up in Garrett, Alleghany think.
Again nothing is clear in this state.
Today, I transported 2 BP pistols...
Second part is why i asked. Academic.
I know a few cops, all have no clue.
I wrote the concealed carry folks, a subsidiary of the NRA, no clue, referred me to MD State Police link, said they are THE AUTHORITY on the matter.
Wrote a clear and concise email to that web address and you know what...
I apologize if this sounds just stupid or has been discussed before, please humor me.
If a BP pistol is not considered a firearm, and can be shipped to me, and I don’t need a HQL to buy, own;
What is the law regarding carrying a Colt .31 Baby Dragoon in a holster on your person? Or a Walker? Gun...
It wasnt any special edition. Tried to find, cant. It had a black iron trigger guard, not London, not ASM, Ub, or Pietta. if I think of it I will post, drawing a blank, I look at so many, I dont recall. On gunbroker. I dont know how or if possible to look back to auctions that are closed. Wife...

Still sorting it out. Ive had stalls in middle and to right, but I keep getting pinged with brass from semis to my left. This time i got early and took left most...
I know this black powder, but if i may, i just got a awesome Colt Defender BB pistol, with laser beam attachment and a metal target that i setup in house for when i cant get to range with pistols. These things sure have come far since i was a kid. Accurate at 25’. Lots of indoor fun. $54 Amazon.
I went Wednesday. Great time. I built a awesome target stand out of pvc pipe so i can disassemble and fit in car. All was great til the gentleman next to me shot out one of the vertical pipes and it collapsed. It was funny! We all watched as it slowly fell over and died! What the odds of hitting...
Update- i came across this old thread, the bid was getting crazy for the 51 Colt Navy because of the squareback trigger. I dropped. Ended up with a brand new Uberti from M&M for $340. Oval brass trigger guard but have been to range a few times and it is my goto range pistol. Amazingly accurate...
I should have waited before ordering holster. Pistol arrived yesterday. Excellent condition but way smaller than I expected. Fits in front jeans pocket (Duh, pocket pistol?). Anyway for $45 the flap holster will protect it when in car trunk for transporting. Pistol not mine, pic from holster...
So get this, toay at elk neck i started getting misfires. Bad caps? but looked fine to me; damp powder?, it was raining but i never had weather affect powder before. Finally i had 5 misfires out of 6. Older gentleman who was shooting BP looks at my Colt Navy and says the wedge wasn’t in far...
