Yes, But it must be a black powder gun patented before 1894. No gun that takes any kind of a shell or cartidge is allowed. This law applies to all 50 states.
The U.S. Code Title 18 states that (I am paraphrasing) muzzle loading pistols and rifles are classified the same as black powder guns 'patented before 1894' though the law uses 'in or before 1898' as long as they are not modified to accept a fixed cartridge such as a bullet or shell and as long as they are not easily modified to accept the same such as the modern muzzle loading rifles that can have the barrel or breach exchanged with one that would fire a modern cartridge. There is a stipulation that they can fire fixed cartridges as long as they are no longer available in the U.S. through normal 'channels' (e.g. obsolete sized cartridges, or foreign calibers)
