WTF?

“because the antiques do not meet the federal government’s definition of a firearm.”

If it can be shot, then what the heck is it? I own some “offcial” antiques. They shoot.

Lots wrong with this story

Guns that do not fire fixed ammunition, such as muzzle loaders, and guns made before 1898, are not regulated by the federal government.

The feds are used to confiscating everything and nobody tells them that they can not, they do not have the jurisdiction. Someone stood up to them in this case, so that is a good thing.
