Anyone in NYC/NYS can own a cap and ball revolver.Oleg Volk said:I wonder if things have changed...
I asked http://thehighroad.org/showthread.php?t=182622
I also looked on-line, seems that they are prohibitied, but I am not certain. Anyone with definitive info?
While not sold in NYC they can be bought in many out of city gun stores with the same ease as buying a pack of smokes.
However...once they are loaded----or if the caps, powder and balls are in close proxmity--then they are considered firearms and must be on a pistol permit.
You many as well give up on convincing New Yorkers about our dumb gun laws.
I work part time at a local range and you would not believe what hoops must be jumped through just to handle a pistol here in Fun City.
