The legend is real! There really is someone who converts BP cap and ball revolvers to fire smokeless powder.
Fricken awesome!!

I thought it was a myth until today.
This could open up whole new possibilities....hunting, home defense, cleaner target shooting, indoor ranges, under 21 smokeless powder handgun ownership, etc.
Hunting: in a larger caliber than what this company offers, one could shoot more powerful loads during muzzloader season than BP revolvers.
Home defense: No more concern about the powder getting damp and long term storage loaded.
Cleaner: Can fire more rounds without fouling, cleaning, and less need to clean to prevent corrosion.
Indoor ranges: Places won't let you shoot BP or Pyrodex, but now one can shoot a muzzloader.
Under 21: People under under 21 can own and possess muzzloading handguns (have to be 21 to buy powder I think though). This allows another way to get new people into shooting sports at the younger age.
Transport: As I understand it, one can stop at the store, gas station or get a cup of coffee when coming back from the range because it is still technically an "antique" and "antiques" are not handguns in the "handguns" transporting section of state statute. (still restricted in Montgomerry co though). Hell, as long as it is unloaded it can possibly stay in the trunk full time as I understand it (except in Mo Co and Baltimore and any where else local laws may apply).
