Yes they are black powder, so they are legal… they look like a fun toy, the video reviews are positive… anyone played with one???
Been looking at the shorter nickel barrel, with the rose wood grips… just thinking

I have. Very low velocity. But really fun, especially at night with the fireball.

I have no fear of black powder, respect, yes. This may be fun. Gotta go google.. See, barrels not bored thru, muzzle loaders. See Diablo and Desparados, not sure of difference. Barrel lengths of a variety of 6" to ? See See 12 ga versions, one 20 ga. Need a better source, more googling.

I would like to turkey hunt with one but would want to shoot one first to see what kind of pattern it would hold at 20-25 yards. Maybe jug choke it to tighten the pattern.

The barrel is too short to get a good burn. There's not enough velocity to hunt with. Loaded as factory recommended, mine won't even penetrate paneling at 30ft. Like I said, fun with fireballs at night but otherwise it's just a loud toy
