Shippers have some restrictions on shipping any firearms. Including I think flintlocks and black powder as they fall under the ‘dangerous goods’ category. One is asked this at any manned FedEx station, “Does this Package contain any dangerous goods?” If they have the authority, not all branches do, they will ship it. Call ahead if you plan on doing so.

Black powder weapons, except those which use in-line mechanisms, are exempt from federal forearms laws, and the laws of almost every state. In fact, if you read the Federal definition of a firearm from the 1968 gun control act, you will find that it specifically exempts antique weapons, and replicas thereof as even being a “firearm” for the purposes of the act. That definition has never been changed.

And UPS will not only deliver a muzzle loader to your door, they will also deliver black powder.

As far as I’m aware any musket guns, rifles or pistols aren’t even considered guns by the ATF. You can walk into a sporting goods store and get a muzzle loader or black powder pistol and walk out the same way you can as if you were buying ammo. Hell you can get them shipped to your door without a problem. So this is just absurd.
