Under US FEDERAL law, they can have a caplock or flintlock.

Can a felon hunt with muzzleloader in Indiana?
I, too, am a convicted felon. Although I find it difficult to find any solid facts on the laws regarding muzzle loaders, I do believe a convicted felon can hunt with a muzzle loader in the state of Indiana. I asked the same question while recently incarcerated in the Knox County, Indiana jail, and all thirty-one inmates in my block agreed that it is lawful to do so. ALL other types of firearms, however, are off limits. Another great alternative is high-powered air rifles. They're not just kid's toys anymore!
