Tennessee State Law allows the ownership of a muzzleloader. However, it is not legal for a felon to own a primer as it is considered reloading equipment. Hence the only muzzleloaders legal to be owned by a felon would be percussion cap, flintlock, etc.Added: IF (repeat) IF Tennessee law allows this, their right to possess it exists only while they are within that state. Ther posession of it outside of Tennessee is unlawful (under FEDERAL law) unless the weapon is an antique and was manufactured prior to 1868, or an exact replica of such a weapon.
A felon may not own, possess, or be permitted access to firearms, ANYWHERE in the US.
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.
I spoke with an ATF Agent and he said a felon in Missouri CAN own a pellet rifle or black powder gun. He can also own a flare gun. He is wrong about black powder,right about flare gun.

Question: Have your firearms rights been restored? If not, regardless of what Wyoming law may say, FEDERAL LAW prohibits convicted felons from ever possessing firearms, and this includes black powder arms.
