You need to find a lawyer who specializes in firearms law to get a correct answer.
A person convicted of ANY class of felony anywhere in the US may not purchase, possess, or be allowed access to firearms ANYWHERE in the US, to include all states, Commonwealths, and unincorporated territories.
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.
Under Federal Law a convicted felon can not possess a firearm. Under most state laws also. So a license will do you no good since you can't possess a firearm. ADDED: the first answer is true in a generally cautionary way. You MAY (depending on NY state law) qualify for a bow hunting license. Check with the NY Fish & Game Commission to be certain. However, as with the first answer - stay away from ANY firearms INCLUDING BLACK POWDER or MUZZLELOADING WEAPONS. They are considered "firearms" under the law and you are forbidden to own or possess them.
