Private Sale of Muzzleloader

[joma352]

Good Morning All,
I recently upgraded my muzzleloader and am looking into selling my old one. Years ago I knew it was pretty simple to sell, you didn't need an FFL or anything, the purchaser just had to be 18. Have the laws changed? I've searched and everything I have found is a few years old and I know how much things have changed in the past 3-5 years with Maryland and gun laws.

Thanks,
JOMA

Face to face is good for a muzzleloader. I don't even think over 18 applies.

It's not a gun legally so no rules

Watcha got?

Enjoy one of the last bastions of freedom in the private sale of a smoke-pole. MGA has tried once already to make this a crime... they will try again.

There are at least 2 muzzleloader’s that I’m aware of that require an FFL

Yup. It's the same as a bow.

Even if you lose your franchise to own firearms, you can still own muzzle loaders.

H&R Huntsman and TC Contender

Why the Huntsman? I can understand the T/C Contender/Encore.

It's a T/C Impact I am looking to sell. She ain't perfect but shoots. Also have a bunch of pellets and power belts to go with it

I am curious also. I have one and had it for quite awhile and like new.

Because you could put a Pardner shotgun or Handirifle barrel on it

That was my suspicion, but my goggling was very poor in coming up with the info. Thanks 94hokie!

Make that 4! I was thinking the Remington Ultimate and the Traditions Nitro

I have 3 of the H&R "Sidekick" Muzzle Loaders,, same as the huntsman. Except they altered the barrel and receiver lockup slightly, so ONLY the ML barrel will fit and close.

Several years running . It was Dumais's pet goal when she was Judiciary Commity.

And at least the early Savage ML .

Makes sense. Looks just like a few of my older H&R and New England shotgun receivers.

You can mail them. Like said earlier what are you selling?

In most states. A few states ban felons from owning muzzleloaders and/or they must be true antiques or replicas of an antique (so they couldn't be a modern inline muzzleloader). MD is not one of those though.

Canada regulates muzzleloaders as firearms. *SMH*

Then again, the UK regulates knives as weapons of mass destruction.
