how old does a handgun have to be so you need not register it? do any cartridge revolvers qualify? what are the chances of finding something in decent shape?
i do remember seeing articles on this but i don't remember where and when.

Look in the Antique &Black Powder section, there are usually a few for sale. But they sell pretty quick, and the prices might be a bit of a shocker.

There's a sticky flow chart in the black powder forum that makes it very easy to figure out.
