A shooter with a brace of eight black powder pistols -- forty-eight rounds -- could wreak havoc without even having to pass a background check or fill out a 4473.
One may walk into any store which sells black powder firearms -- which are not classified as "firearms" -- and buy as many as they wish without any problem whatsoever. No paper work. No background check. No report of multiple purchases.
If that ever happens -- and I pray it does not -- the fallacy of magazine size limits and bans of specific firearms will come to the fore and the best the antis will be able to do is a call for bans on all firearms and the inclusion of black powder firearms as "firearms."
