I saw that this morning. I thought it was funny, because the lefty rag where I used to live did these kinds of write-ups monthly, and it was 95% those kinds of firearms in the photos. Many I would be afraid to pull the trigger on, and there were often obvious airsoft and BB guns.

You don't have to pull the trigger, it's missing so you can fan the hammer just like they did in the cowboy movies.
A plan is just a list of things that doesn't happen.
Is defenestration possible through the overton window?

It's not even a very authentic replica.....it's a 1858 Remington.   Originals never had brass frames. 
Time consuming to load, but those old guns  could do a world of hurt untu a human body.

A trans girl who knows cap and ball replicas aren't legally firearms? You are my new favorite tweeter!

Best comment exchange. :rofl:
