I was thinking about ways to make a Glock muzzleloader. My best idea is to use a go gage as the primer holder and breech face. The go gauge would need to be machined to accept a 209 style primer and have a through hole to allow fire to reach powder load.
If a few mils of powdercoat were applied to the exterior of the go gauge it could then be lightly pounded into the chamber and create a good seal. Holes could be drilled through barrel chamber and into go gauge allowing the go gauge to be secured to the chamber with set screws. A couple of decent size set screws screwed in flush from top of barrel hood should be sufficient to hold go gauge in the chamber.
Extractor claw would have to be removed from extractor.
This same technique could be used on many centerfire firearms where full length go gauges were available.
Here are a couple of photos that show different angles of 9mm go gauge.
