Dave Markowitz's Blog O'Stuff about computing, shooting, RKBA, and whatever else I feel like ranting about.
A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects.

Davew, I've sent you a nit-picky proof-reading e-mail separately. Here, I'll mention that IANAL - which stands for I am NOT anal - or I am not a lawyer. Even were I one, not my jurisdiction - I'm Australian.
HOWEVER, from my reading, I get the impression that cap&ball revolvers often don't count as banned firearms for those poor suls who are being worked over by women's lieyers in divorce proceedings. I won't go into the emotion-laden results of being screwed by a woman's lawyer who could still find big oil in Texas - suffice it to say that we all know the lies happen, and the legal system (misnamed "justice") supports them even though it knoww they are generally false.
Fact is, cap&ball revolvers often allow the male victims (unlike most males, there are very few female victims - if they get found guilty, they are almost all big time guilty) to have a means of self-defense, despite the wishes of their former spouses.
