Yep. Can buy a Blackpowder pistol from Cabelas and have it shipped. However, owning any of the components to make it fire means handgun and in NY in order to even touch a handgun you need to have a pistol permitWhat Curator said. Anybody can own one as a presentation piece, but if you are in possession of even ONE component -- powder OR ball OR cap -- you have to have it registered and you have to have a pistol permit.
