Hi, well I have a weird question that no one may really know the answer to.
I frequently go to Southern Baja Mexico for vacation, mainly because it has so much to offer in terms of adventure. We usually 4X4 up many areas and focus mainly on good camping trips.
On thing that always bothers me, is the wildlife which is abundant and dangerous is some cases. It has got me thinking of bringing a gun with me next time, but I have learned that firearms are illegal in Mexico.
However! I have heard from some locals that (Muzzleloaders) are legal in Mexico because they are more directed to hunting; and if this is the case would a muzzleloader pistol {Cap & Ball Revolver} be legal to bring along into Mexico, Preferably a reproduction Colt 1860 Cap & Ball.
In the United States Cap & Ball revolvers are not even considered real firearms and can be ordered direct. So how does Mexico play into all this.
