Hey, I liked this thread the first time - when somebody else posted it three months ago. We told the last guy that doing that would be a federal firearms-related felony (which it is), but that wouldn't matter much after he blew his hands off (which he would).

The fact that you don't have to fill out a 4473 to buy a black powder rifle is *why* it's illegal to modify it to shoot a modern cartridge. You're turning a gun from a class that doesn't require a background check into a gun from a class that does, and unfortunately for you, the ATF is clever enough to have thought of that loophole.

There is nothing illegal about manufacturing your own firearms, only if you intend to distribute. Hence why those .22lr conversion barrels for flare guns are perfectly legal. Stop talking about shit you don't know anything about.

>Dude, you can literally, and legally, make a gun out of a piece of pipe from the hardware store
But you can't modify a black powder rifle to accept cartridges. I didn't say that federal gun laws made any sense (Why is a snub-nosed revolver perfectly legal, but a short-barreled rifle three times its length illegal?), I just said they are what they are.

>Lol they seriously sell cartridge conversion kits for black powder handguns, no paperwork required
Learn the law. Modifying the receiver so that a black powder gun can accept cartridges is illegal. Those cylinders are legal because you aren't modifying the receiver when you install them. As soon as you whip out your drill, you're a felon.
>>
>>34434268
I also want a source on this
>>
>>34434282
>Where are you getting this information
"As defined in 18 U.S.C. § 921(a)(16) the term 'antique firearm' means —


any firearm (including any firearm with a matchlock, flintlock, percussion cap, or similar type of ignition system) manufactured in or before 1898; or
any replica of any firearm described in subparagraph (A) if such replica —
is not designed or redesigned for using rimfire or conventional centerfire fixed ammunition, or
uses rimfire or conventional centerfire fixed ammunition which is no longer manufactured in the United States and which is not readily available in the ordinary channels of commercial trade; or
any muzzle loading rifle, muzzle loading shotgun, or muzzle loading pistol, which is designed to use black powder, or a black powder substitute, and which cannot use fixed ammunition. For purposes of this subparagraph, the term ‘antique firearm’ shall not include any weapon which incorporates a firearm frame or receiver, any firearm which is converted into a muzzle loading weapon, or any muzzle loading weapon, which can be readily converted to fire fixed ammunition by replacing the barrel, bolt, breechblock, or any combination thereof."

Modifying the receiver constitutes a "redesign" of the gun. In fact, there's even some question about whether one of those new cylinders is legal to install (as opposed to legal to sell, buy, or possess). It's one of those things that would hinge on a prosecutor's interpretation of the law - you could probably get away with it in Arizona, but I wouldn't chance it in New York or Massachusetts. But as for taking a drill to a black powder rifle, that's absolutely a felony.

>any firearm (including any firearm with a matchlock, flintlock, percussion cap, or similar type of ignition system) manufactured in or before 1898; or

The gun in OP is neither antique nor a replica of an antique

Also, that's just defining the terms, it says nothing about a conversion being illegal

Legally, yes it is. Read the whole thing over again. Part of the definition of the term "antique" is: "any muzzle loading rifle, muzzle loading shotgun, or muzzle loading pistol, which is designed to use black powder, or a black powder substitute, and which cannot use fixed ammunition". This is why you don't need to fill out a 4473 to buy a modern black powder muzzleloader.
>>

It says a replica of anything made before 1898 and that post still says nothing about a conversion being illegal
>>
>>34434445
>It says a replica of anything made before 1898 and that post still says nothing about a conversion being illegal
OMG the fucking lack of reading comprehension here! Yes, as I said above, a modern black powder muzzleloader is legally an "antique", (that's why the word "or" is so important in this law - it's defining multiple categories of guns that are legally "antiques") and yes, it's a felony to "redesign" it to use modern ammunition.
>>
>>34434479
> or any replica of any firearm described in subparagraph A

That means specifically a replica of guns made before 1898

Okay, I see the problem here, which is that whatever shit-tier public school you went to never got around to teaching you what the word "or" means. Look it up and try reading that law again. You'll see that it defines an antique as a firearm made before 1898, OR a replica of one, OR as "any muzzle loading rifle, muzzle loading shotgun, or muzzle loading pistol, which is designed to use black powder, or a black powder substitute, and which cannot use fixed ammunition".

I guess they don't teach this stuff anymore, but this may help:

It is not illegal to manufacture your own firearms (so long as they're NFA compliant and you dont sell them), which is what you'd be doing by permanently modifying a black powder rifle to use smokeless cartridges. Stop being autistic.

>>34436838

You can sell them, you just can't be "in the business of" selling them. They must also have the manufacturer's information and a serial number.

Again, I don't claim that the law is consistent or makes sense. I just claim that it is what it is. Redesigning a black powder gun so that it takes cartridges is explicitly illegal. That's what the law says. If you don't like it, call your congressman.

That's because you're a teenager and still believe that our country's laws make sense or are consistent. I'm sorry to disillusion you, but it just isn't so. Our laws are bullshit made up by slick-talking hacks who get power by making nitwit voters feel good. Why is an AR illegal in California but a Mini-14 - which does the exact same thing - legal? Why is pic related illegal under the NFA while my little snub-nosed LCR that's a third of its size and weight is perfectly legal? It doesn't make any sense, but that doesn't stop it from being what the law says.

NFA RULING DECISIONS ASIDE, YOU SEEM TO BE CONFUSING DEFENITIONS WITH LEGAL WORDING
IF A COMPANY OFFERED CONVERTED BLACKPOWDER FIREARMS FOR SALE (WHICH SOME DO), THEN THEY WOULD HAVE TO GO THROUGH AN FFL
IT WOULD NOT BE ILLEGAL FOR THEM TO OFFER THESE PRODUCTS, UNLESS THEY SHIPPED THEM DIRECTLY TO THE CUSTOMER IN SUCH A CONFIGURATION

TO USE AN ANALOGY, IT WOULD BE ILLEGAL FOR A COMPANY TO SELL COMPLETE LOWERS AS 80%. BUT IT IS NOT ILLEGAL TO MODIFY (FINISH) 80% LOWERS TO BE COMPLETE YOURSELF
IT IS NOT ILLEGAL TO MODIFY OR MANUFACTURE FIREARMS AS A PRIVATE CITIZEN
YOUR READING OF THE LAW IS NOT ONLY INCORRECT, BUT IN BAD FAITH NOW THAT YOU ARE DOUBLING DOWN ONCE YOU'VE BEEN PROVEN INCORRECT

Well, what I'm convinced of is that people here have so little reading comprehension and attention span that they're incapable of connecting two ideas together if they're in different paragraphs in the same passage. Again, I've shown where OP's rifle is defined as an "antique" for purposes of law, and I've shown where modifying an "antique" to take cartridges is illegal. At this point, anyone who's too stupid to comprehend this isn't worth arguing with anymore.

Does it physically hurt to be this stupid? I mean, to miss points this badly? Yes, I know what the law says. The entire fucking point was that the law says those things, but that it doesn't make any sense that they do. It doesn't make any sense that an LCR is legal, but a Mare's Leg that's three times its size and weight and thus much harder to conceal is illegal. It doesn't make any sense that a Mini-14 is illegal, but an AR that does the exact same thing is illegal. Saying that the law makes sense because it's the law is circular logic, and not being able to see that is the kind of massive stupidity that I've come to expect from you in this thread.
>>
>>34437815
this
>>
>>34437777
No, it shows that modifying an antique to use cartridges makes it no longer an antique. If the resulting firearm is otherwise legal to own, no law is broken. It simply is no longer an antique and is subject to the laws pertaining to modern firearms.

I WILL HUMOR THE TANGENT YOU ARE GOING OFF ON: YOUR ARGUMENT WOULD BE MUCH MORE COMPELLING IF YOU HAD COMPARED SHORT BARRELED RIFLE 'MARES LEG' TO PIC RELATED INSTEAD OF COMPARING IT TO A REVOLVER. THE REASON THAT IT IS ILLEGAL IS SOLELY BECAUSE OF THE STOCK, BECAUSE THAT CONFIGURATION IS EXPLICITLY BANNED BY THE NFA.
