Are Federal 209 primer are the same as Federal 209A primers?
Federal 209A primers are hotter than Federal 209 primers and are hotter than Winchester or Remmington or CCI 209 primers. To duplicate your load when substituting Federal 209A primers in place of any other 209 primer, use 1 grain less powder for like performance.
Are modern inline black powder firearms illegal for felons to hunt with in Alabama?
Under FEDERAL law, a felon may not possess 209 primers anywhere in the US. They are considered ammunition, where percussion caps are not. Most inline muzzleloaders use 209 shotshell primers.
Can a felon own a black powder ball and cap gun?
Under FEDERAL law, yes- if it is a caplock or flintlock (no 209 primer guns) HOWEVER- state laws vary. Some states permit, some prohibit. Georgia does not permit a felon to possess a muzzleloader (includes ball & cap) Virginia permits, but does not allow a felon to possess black powder. #209 primers (shot shell primers) are considered ammunition under Federal law, and a felon may not possess ammunition.
Is there a 209 primer conversion kit available for the 870?
By 870 I assume you mean the Model 870 shotgun? If so, there would be no purpose for that type of conversion. Shotshell primers are of the 209 size. The 209 "conversion" is done with muzzle loaders. The idea is to replace the muzzle loader nipple (that holds the cap) with a conversion unit that uses the 209 shotshell primer to get more positive ignition of the black powder.
Do you need back ground check for muzzle loader in Maine?
No. However, if you are a "prohibited person" it is illegal for you to possess 209 shotshell primers. Percussion caps are OK, 209 primers are not.
Is there a black powder revolver with a 209 primer?
There are none produced that I know of, a 209 primer would be over kill in a revolver due to the small chamber and lower amounts of powder.

Where can you find a small rifleprimer nipple for a hammer type muzzle loader?
Rifle primers are generally not reccommended for muzzle loading firearms- the flame is not large enough to reliably ignite black powder or Pyrodex. There are nipples that use a #209 shotgun primer, and even then, it is reccommended that you use a primer intended for black powder. Check with Dixie Gun works for a nipple that will fit your rifle.
Can a convicted felon in CT own a black powder rifle?
Not unless it was manufactured prior to 1898 and is classified as an antique.The problem with owning one even then is that under 18 USC, felons are not permitted to possess explosives, and black powder is an explosive. Therefore, even if you lawfully owned a genuine antique, you could not legally poossess the powder to fire it.
What is a 209 primer?
Well......... As far as I know, a 209 primer isn't a paint primer at all. It is an ignition source for the powder in a bullet. There are a few different types, 209 being one of the most common. They're most commonly used in shotgun shells, and black powder rifles.
Is there such a thing as a 177 cal powder rifle?
There appear to be videos of such on the internet, but I would seriously question the validity of them. Consider that .177 is the size of a standard BB. Pretty small. Outfitters such as Cabelas however sell the Pedersoli 209 Hawk Rifle which is .177 caliber and fires pellets or standard BBs using standard 209 primers. It isn't powder, but might be effective against small rodents at relatively short distances.
Can a felon hunt with a Muzzle-Loader gun?
Depends on the laws in that state, and the type of muzzle loader. Under Federal law they cannot use a gun with 209 primers (shotgun primers) as the primers are considered ammunition. In some- but NOT all states, they can hunt with a caplock or flintlock.
