I don't know why but I like it.
Percussion cap pistols or rifles made after 1898 don't have antique status and are classified firearms. This pistol is restricted.
(From the RCMP site)
Muzzleloaders made before 1898
All black powder muzzleloaders made before 1898 are considered antique firearms. Antique firearms are exempt from the licence and registration requirements set out in the Firearms Act.
Muzzleloaders made after 1898
All matchlock, flintlock and wheel lock long guns are considered antiques no matter when they were made. Like older firearms of these types, they are exempt from the licence and registration requirements set out in the Firearms Act.
Percussion cap long guns and muzzle-loading black powder handguns made after 1898 are not considered antiques even if they are copies of an earlier antique model. Newer percussion cap long guns are classified as non-restricted firearms; newer handguns, including matchlock, wheel lock and flintlock handguns made after 1898, are classified as restricted if their barrel length is over 105 mm (about 4 inches), or prohibited if their barrel length is 105 mm or less.

So we just have to ask Chiappa if they'll make a flintlock version of that pistol and then we'd be able to take it on camping trips for entertainment! I won't hold my breath though...

Stocking dealer:
- Wanstalls
Wantsall does not list it on their site, they don’t list any muzzleloaders or black powder firearms that I can find. If Wantsall is beginning to sell muzzleloaders, perhaps they should have a section called,” muzzleloaders” they might sell a few more that way
I got one from CRAFM in Quebec. I got the blued version with brass. I prefer it over the white finish. The finish and quality are beautiful. It's deadly accurate too.
CRAFM had the only one for sale in Canada. It was around $485.
They were great to deal with and shipped it as soon as I received the transfer details.
