And Cabelas and all on-line retailers are aware of the state-by-state restricions, if any, and will ship (or not) accordingly.

Not "all on-line retailers". There are dealers who will ship you things that are not legal for you to possess in your State. It's your responsibility, not the dealer.

Sorry, but to stop the spread of misinformation I'm compelled to point out that this is an Urban Legend that I have heard spread often.

The fact is that prior to 2004 Michigan law required a "purchase Permit" aka "Registered" to buy BP pistols legally, but since 2004 they are considered "Antique Firearms" and no registration is required whether you hunt with it or not.
