Under US FEDERAL law, they can have a caplock or flintlock. They cannot have a muzzle loader that uses 209 shotshell primers (primers are considered modern ammunition) However, different states have different state laws. You will need to check in YOUR state. A parole officer would be a good place to begin checking, as would the state police.
