...the muskets didn't comply with local gun regs.
Park officials in Elk Grove, just south of Sacramento, have forced a historical society to abruptly cancel a long-planned, two-day Revolutionary War reenactment, citing local anti-gun laws, the Elk Grove Citizen reported.

Instead of muskets, officials reportedly requested an alternative: wooden sticks.

LOL. The absurdity.

Wooden sticks on the water, very free and easy
Easy, you know the way it's supposed to be
Silver people on the shoreline, let us be
Talkin' 'bout very free and easy

Even the nutiest of 2nd amendment interpretations can't exclude a musket. WTH?

It's stupid, but at least they're going to make changes so they can resume next year. Seems like they could have made an exception for this year though.

"Entrican told the Elk Grove Citizen that the rules will be amended and that "it's going to be OK" to hold the event next year."

If you fire a gun in CA, even blanks, someone may shoot back!

Admit it - the gun regulations aside, it would be fun as hell to watch a bunch of grown men running around in costume pointing sticks at each other and yelling "BANG BANG!!!" repeatedly. I can't stop laughing.
