buddy of mine had 2 violent felonies….
disorderly conduct…
assault and battery…
it was a bar fight.
he got himself an 1851 black power revolver…
had to change the powder and percussion cap every day…
but it was the only thing he was able to own.
muzzle loader is okay to own…
but its illegal for felons to own a firearm that uses center fire or rim fire cartridges
but that was in iowa.

always check your local laws.
