Perhaps the liberals think it'd be just the thing to scare away criminals?  Or would that be seen as an excessive use of force? :-D

I think my meat cleaver would also be seen as excessive force-especially since it doesn't have a serial #.

I had one for a while.  It was kind of fun actually watching the bullet go to the target.  Very underpowered, although it might be better with 3f or even 4f, all I had at the time was 2f.

Mine came with some small conicals, don't know how much they weigh.  It comes with a little powder dipper, but I can't remember how many grains it is.

I have one that is a lot of fun to shoot. I got the loading tool, powder dipper, and bullets from North American Arms. I thought they would work and they did, just fine. I am also using .24 round balls in it. Right now I am loading it with 1 grain of Bullseye powder. I can shoot about 2.5" at 15 feet. (Not bad for bad eyes).
