Personally, why anyone would want to carry a BP revolver "concealed" is beyond me for SD purposes. That desire sort of makes an alarm go off for me as it would usually indicate the individual does not want to carry a cartridge firearm for SD for a reason . . . most likely because they cannot get a CPL license due to a felony conviction, a PPO, history of domestic abuse, drugs, etc. - in which case they SHOULDN'T be allowed to own a firearm let alone carry one - and in Michigan with any of those convictions they cannot purchase, possess or have access to them.


In Idaho , one can purchase C&B , muzzleloader , bows , cross bows …. No back ground, just walk in and walk out . However the state law defines firearm to mean and includes any weapon from which a shot, projectile, or other object may be discharged by force of combustion, explosive, gas, and/or mechanical means, whether operable or inoperable.

So while a given item may not be recognized by the fed as a firearm , does not mean the state holds the same meaning . So here while a C&B revolver may not require a back ground check , if you are a felon “depending on felony “ and you purchase that item and get caught , they can hit you with illegally owning a firearm
