There is at least one court decision which holds that a black powder gun, in this case a replica of a Remington cap and ball revolver, is a "firearm." In U.S.

v. Green, 515 F.Supp. 517 (D.Md. 1981) the court refused to grant the

defendant's motion to dismiss an indictment for being a felon in

possession of a firearm, based on its interpretation that the replica is

indeed a "firearm" and a "handgun" that he was prohibited from

possessing. This was in spite of the BATF's opinion that the replica

wasn't a "firearm" that the defandant would be prohibited from possessing.
