yes to the firearm term. Most states consider it a long gun. 18 to buy etc but I dont think you have to do the forms like you do for a rifle or shotgun. Course NJ and CA and a few others are still pretty restrictive. someday some nut job will do something haneous with a smokepole then they too will be subject to the grabbers

On a federal level, no. They are considered non - guns. However, they may be considered firearms in certain states.

That is going to depend on the State you are living in. Where I live they are considered primitive weapons and you can buy them across the counter with no back ground check and take them any where you can take a boat anchor.

oh yeah. They shoot projectiles don't they? Therefore, they are firearms. They also have muzzleloader season for deer in KY.
