If black powder guns aren't legally firearms, does that mean I can easily buy and carry multiple revolvers for defense?

Is there a reason you can't do that with modern revolvers now? ATF doesn't classify them as firearms but legally they are still weapons. Odds are your State or City has a law/ordnance against carrying them if they prevent open/concealed carry already.

>If black powder guns aren't legally firearms
Close, but not quite.
Specifically, it's anything made before 1899, and muzzleloaders, which are exempt. Black powder cartridge guns made in 1899 or afterward are legally firearms.

>can I carry them
That comes down to local law, not Federal. Just because the ATF doesn't consider them firearms doesn't mean your local laws won't restrict them by some other definition. Plus, even if they aren't "firearms" under federal law, they certainly are "weapons".

Yeah just wear around a brace of pistols, it should work well.

Loaded and ready to shoot they are legally considered firearms for most purposes

I can't decide which cap and ball revolver was the most beautiful, the Remington 1858 or the Colt 1860 army.

no

a loaded black powder weapon becomes a firearm the moment it is used

fun fact in most juristictions a banana in your pocket becomes a firearm if used to rob a bank

So any situation you might LEGALLY use a firearm you can use a loaded BP weapon and if you don't have the right to carry a firearm or use on in a public place then you are fucked

Yeah, but some states have their own additional restrictions and limitations on purchasing, owning, and carrying BP muzzleloaders. Isn't it funny how "states' rights" usually just means the state's right to try to control you?
It's also a fast and dirty loophole if you can't normally buy guns for some reason or another and decide you're done playing the game and want to "quit to menu"

The state doesn't care about protecting you from yourself, it only cares about protecting itself from you
