NO, not safely anyway. the black powder guns use a much larger barrel pivot pin that their firearm counterparts. to switch from the black powder to accept a 410 barrel you would have to drill out the pivot pin hole on the .410 barrel to accept the larger pin, the black powder barrel support arm is thicker, to account for this....the .410 barrel support arm will become to thin from the drilling making it prone to creak or break.... need anything leinad related? guns, parts, kits, pictures, advice? contact me. xthexheadx@gmail.com
How much is a old black powder only 45 cal long barrel pistol worth?
Pieper was a Belgian gun maker, so it was most likely made in Belgium. Look for the Belgian black powder proof marks.

You haven't asked a question.
25 HUNDRED
Carr Bros were made in Huddesfield between circa 1879 and 1914 at cloth hall street England.
Most likely made at the turn of the century. Hang it on a wall and enjoy it.
Chances are that if you overload the charge in a revolver style black powder pistol, you can blow up the cylinder or blow the barrel off the end of the gun.
It just looks like a barrel with black flakes coming out of the top off the barrel.
3000$ or more
If you are speaking of modern slugs even with a black powder charge behind it I would not, many of the slugs have a hollowed out conical design made to force the sides against the barrel or rifling, Most old black powder guns will not stand up to the pressure, and unless the barrel has no choke to it, a slug should not be fired from it at all. Patched round balls may be fired from muzzle loaders with no problems as long as there is no choke to the barrel.
