black powder pistols
multiple firings for one.
not likely anyone keeps data on re-pro black powder pistols................
Answeryes, a muzzle loader and black powder are just two different names for the same thing.Black powder is a term that also includes a category of guns that fire black powder cartridges. So these guns were breech loaders and do not load from the muzzle. Also the early black powder revolvers were loaded by ramming the charge into the cylinders---not the muzzle. These could also be referred to as black powder pistols and not muzzle loaders.I just call them "smoke poles" myself.Also, the early Colt pistols fired black powder and a ball. These are called "black powder pistols" or "cap and ball pistols". If I was referring to shooting a Colt, I would say I shoot a black powder gun; I would not refer to it as a muzzle-loader.

there are several typed of powder the most common are black powder and smokeless powder. black powder is very corrosive and burns slower com paired to smokeless and just by the name there acepinaly more smoke were as smokeless gun powder is stronger and faster and cleaner.
Originally, pistols (and muskets) used black powder. Modern firearms use smokeless powder, based on nitroglycerin and nitrocellulose. There are several different powders that can be used, based on caliber and bullet weight. Among the most common pistol powders have been Bullseye and Unique.
yes
no they do not ----- In general, black powder handguns do not require registration. I would check with local authorities, however, because the registration laws vary from state to state, and may even involve local ordinances.
You will need to buy black powder at a gun shop or online - it is regulated by the federal government, and most stores don't bother with all the paperwork needed to sell it.
