Rockingham County sheriff's deputies said he shot his wife after she returned to their home after midnight on Tuesday.Now, these guys who own black-powder guns are what, collectors usually, hunters? They're gun buffs who normally wouldn't act in an irresponsible manner, right?Rockingham County Sheriff's Department spokesman Dean Venable told WGHP that the man loaded a black powder pistol with toilet paper, then fired the weapon at his 55-year-old wife, who was in bed.

ReplyDeleteNo. Anyone can buy a black powder gun. In some stores, you can go pick one off the shelf, pay for it, and walk right out the door. Or you can have one delivered right to your door if you buy it online.
It's entirely possible some nitwit who couldn't pass a NICS check bought a black powder pistol with the sole intent of terrorizing his wife.
You can't judge people by the types of guns they own, regardless of what Jadegold, Jim Zumbo, and Dhimmi Carter tell you.
Uh-oh, MikeB knows about the “Antique Loophole” now.
