Please verify with the NY State Game Commission- and the answer seems to be "maybe". NY does not consider an "antique" to be a firearm. The term Antique includes muzzle loading caplock or flintlock rifles and shotguns, and present day reproductions of them. However, a modern, in-line, 209 primer type muzzleloader CANNOT be used by a felon under FEDERAL law. That prohibits a felon from possessing "ammunition"- and ammunition includes 209 shotshell type primers (but not #11 percussion caps). Some state laws permit possessin of a muzzleloader by felons, some do not- so please verify with your state.

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!
