Frequently Asked Questions

Does this item require an FFL transfer to purchase?
No. As a traditional muzzleloading firearm, this model qualifies for the antique firearm exemption in federal law (18 U.S.C. § 921(a)(3)) and ships directly to your door with no FFL transfer or background check required. A handful of states and cities do regulate black powder firearms on their own, so confirm your local rules before ordering.

Can this muzzleloader be used with both loose black powder and pelletized/encapsulated charges?
Check the specific model’s manual for approved propellants and charge types — compatible options vary by design, and using an unapproved propellant or charge weight can be dangerous. We don’t publish load data here; always follow the manufacturer’s printed instructions.

Can this ship to my state?
Most states allow direct shipment of black powder firearms, but a few restrict or prohibit it. Confirm your state and local regulations before ordering.
