[QUOTE="inactive, post: 1190755, member: 7488"] I agree with this with some reservations. Since the act provides its own specific definition of pistol, and this weapon does not meet them, it is not applicable under any of the "pistol" provisions of the law, despite the the BAFTE's consideration: So regardless of what you or other statute may designate a pistol, per this act only it is not a pistol. I would further argue that if you treated this as a "rifle or shotgun" with regard to your transport and storage being in compliance with this law, you would likely be in the clear as you consciously recognized it was not a pistol as defined by this act, and with rifle and shotgun not being clearly defined, it "must" be a rifle or shotgun. That said, there is not legal precedent for that logic but it being what a reasonable person could infer you would likely be in the clear, particularly since the rifle/shotgun carry is more conservative (magazine/clip loaded, not chamber loaded like "pistols"). Edit: The interesting thing about how much of law works, that there is this "reasonable person" test and laws and contracts reviewed by the courts are applied based on how a reasonable person could interpret them (federal government not withstanding). Of course, the paradox lies in the fact that no reasonable person would ever write something so contradictory or confusing as most statutes are worded! [/QUOTE]
