Antique Weapons

Antique firearms are firearms that were manufactured before 1898 - they are not subject to any firearm transfer laws, documentation, or restrictions. Guns in this category were not designed for using rim fire or conventional center fire ignition with fixed ammunition; this includes flintlock, matchlock, percussion cap, or similar type of ignition system.
