No. Even though a black powder gun is not "a firearm" as defined by the Federal Gun Control Acts for sale and transfer, it is still a weapon and all ordnances governing the use of a firearm still apply. You can't fire it in city limits or in the direction of an occupied building. You still need a hunting license to take game with it and a permit to carry it concealed. You cannot carry it at all in certain places (churches, bars, schools, etc).
I wouldn't try that. Get a permit.
Yes it is concealed, but not illegal because black powder firearms are not considered a "firearm".
It depends on the state law in the state you live in. In most states you will need a concealed weapon permit. So long as you have a CWP you should be fine, not the best for personal protection, but it will work.
In Iowa, black powder pistols are classified as firearms, meaning they are subject to state firearm laws. Individuals must be at least 21 years old to purchase a black powder pistol and must not be prohibited from owning firearms due to felony convictions or mental health issues. No permit is required specifically for the purchase of black powder pistols, but if you carry one concealed, you need a valid Iowa permit to carry. It's advisable to check local regulations as they may vary.
In North Carolina, a pistol permit is not required to purchase or possess a black powder pistol. However, you must be at least 18 years old and can purchase black powder firearms without a permit. It's important to comply with any local laws regarding the use and storage of such firearms. Always check for the most current regulations, as laws can change.
In Tennessee, you can open carry a black powder pistol without a permit, as black powder firearms are generally not classified as "handguns" under state law.

To obtain a concealed carry permit in the state of North Carolina, you must attend a certified course (the price of which will typically range from $50 - $150). While attending this course, you will receive instruction on the laws of lethal force in North Carolina, and you will have to do some firing, as well. After taking the course, you go to your County Sheriff's Department, with $90 in hand. At that point, you will be fingerprinted, then undergo an extensive background check, which takes around two months to complete. Provided the background check doesn't turn up anything which renders you invalid to obtain a concealed carry permit, you will receive a permit which is valid for five years. Without this permit, you may not carry a firearm concealed in North Carolina, whether a contemporary firearm, or a black powder firearm. As for specific laws pertaining to what you may carry, there are none in regards to a black powder pistol. You may not carry long barreled weapons concealed, and you may not carry NFA weapons concealed (i.e., full auto weapons, short barreled rifles/shotguns, anything listed as "any other weapon", such as pistols with a forward grip attached). That goes for both modern firearms and black powder weapons. (DOC) N.C.
