Can a convicted felon own a muzzleloader and antique pistol in Ohio?

I would consult an Ohio attorney on this. The Ohio statute says:2923.13 Having weapons while under disability.(A) Unless relieved from disability under operation of law or legal process, no person shall knowingly acquire, have, carry, or use any firearm or dangerous ordnance, if any of the following apply: (1) The person is a fugitive from justice. (2) The person is under indictment for or has been convicted of any felony offense of violence or has been adjudicated a delinquent child for the commission of an offense that, if committed by an adult, would have been a felony offense of violence.
Under federal law, a muzzleloader or a firearm made prior to 1 Jan 1899 is not a firearm, but is an ANTIQUE firearm, and the Federal law does not apply. Felons may not possess regular ammunition, including 209 shotshell primers (#11 percussion caps are OK) . However, state laws CAN be more stringent, and I would be concerned about the term "dangerous ordnance" in the Ohio State statute.

∙ 8y agoYes. Convicted felons can own antique firearms if they are muzzle loading (i.e. do not use fixed ammunition)

∙ 13y agoOhio law does not distinguish between muzzleloading firearms and modern arms for felons. No, a felon may not. See link at bottom of page.

Can a felon in ny state hunt with a muzzle loader?
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.
