As said below- a felon may not possess a firearm. In SOME states they may possess a muzzleloading firearm, or a bow. Felons are banned from possessing firearms in ALL states by Federal law. Violate that, and you will have 10 years to serve in a Federal prison. Check with parole staff for limitations in YOUR state.

In Virginia, a felon may be able to use a muzzleloader to hunt, but it depends on the nature of their conviction. Under state law, individuals convicted of a felony are generally prohibited from possessing firearms, which includes muzzleloaders classified as firearms. However, if the felony conviction is older and has been expunged or if the individual has received restoration of their rights, they may be permitted to hunt with a muzzleloader. It is essential for individuals to check their specific legal status and consult with legal authorities if unsure.
NC DOJ (attorney general's office) says that a convicted felon shall not posses a handgun (any kind of pistol), weapon of mass destruction, or a rifle with a barrel length less than 26 inches.

I had just got off the phone with the law enforcement at the D.N.R offices and i was told that a felon can hunt with a Bow and Arrow and X-Bow but no type of gun at all not muzzleloader either
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.
