Antique revolver regs.

[davemccarthy707]

I have read the antique revolver regs. I can not find anything about discharging the firearm. Can you go out plinking with an antique handgun? (just for example) or are you restricted to a range? I would like to have a revolver but I don't want to go thru the att statt foolishness that goes along with the RPAL. Thanks in advance.

Its in the transport and handleing of firearms regs.
you can discharge a antique firearm anywhere its legal to discharge a non restricted firearm.
but remember you cant hunt with any handgun so target shooting would be the only legal reason to be dischargeing a antique handgun in the bush.
