SilencerCo has developed a can for your muzzy with no tax stamp!
https://www.store.silencerco.com/products/maxim-50?variant=37950952529
For the first time since the National Firearms Act (NFA) was created in 1934, civilians can enjoy suppressed shooting in all 50 states with SilencerCo's latest innovation: the integrally suppressed Maxim 50 muzzleloader. In addition, this product can be purchased right now on the web with no regulation (no 4473, no $200 tax stamp, no photographs, and no fingerprints) and be shipped immediately to the customer with few exceptions.
In addition to producing hearing safe sound results, the Maxim 50 also offers shooters greatly reduced recoil and a 2/3 reduction of smoke emissions when compared to non-moderated muzzleloaders. No matter where you are in the country, you can now enjoy shooting suppressed.

No stamp, no wait. Very tempting.
They sell a NW legal breech too.

They are built on a Traditions Vortek Strikerfire. I know Traditions makes a NW legal version of the Vortek, but I'm not familiar if they can be converted after the fact. Finding open sights that fit on top of the can would be difficult. But I guess you could run it as is with a scope during modern seasons.

I wonder how long it would last. You would think it would corrode quickly with the use of black powder.
You would have to build a custom raised sight base. The current set up wouldn't cut it for our muzzleloader season. Maybe for modern with optics.
