Off the top of my head, yes. You need Gunsmithing to craft firearms. With no crafting DC. I follow the idea that a gun would take a week or so to create, or 1000 gold in crafting per day.
This is straight from UC, p.103
Gunsmithing
You know the secrets of repairing and restoring firearms.
Benefit: If you have access to a gunsmith’s kit, you can create and restore firearms, craft bullets, and mix black powder for all types of firearms. You do not need to make a Craft check to create firearms and ammunition or to restore firearms.
Crafting Firearms: You can craft any early firearm for a cost in raw materials equal to half the price of the firearm. At your GM’s discretion, you can craft advanced firearms for a cost in raw materials equal to half the price of the firearm. Crafting a firearm in this way takes 1 day of work for every 1,000 gp of the firearm’s price (minimum 1 day).
So the answer is Yes, you can create a firearm as long as you have this feat, without making craft checks for it. The only thing you need a separate crafting skill for is Craft (Alchemy) 1 in order to make the alchemical cartridges, but again it doesn't say you need to make craft checks. I think the reason being is its a feat, not a bonus to a craft skill.
I am guessing you can make a musket into a musket axe, but keep in mind it lowers the damage of your musket from 1d12 to 1d8 and the range from 40' to 30', so I don't see it as a real good benefit.
I'd say because firearms are (typically, depending on your type of campaign) so rare and hard to come by, that without the feat you don't know enough about firearms to mess with them.
If your campaign is more advanced in the firearms department, as in they are commonplace and/or you are using advanced firearms, you can just add the Craft: Firearms skill. It would work like creating other weapons/items and I would recommend it requires a Gunsmithing kit.
Well, normal crafting rules (ugh) determine how long it takes by the value of the item in silvers. Without even getting into DCs, we are looking at rolling a d20 + modifiers vs tens of thousands of silvers.
There's perhaps no rules for it, because we are looking at a crafting time measured in years.
Since the game is lacking in DCs, I'd say that it's up to the DM.
So the answer is either going to be No, or yes with "made up DC". Sorry.

So I happened to be reading through UC the other day, and stumbled across something that may help you blackbloodtroll, though maybe a little late. It threw me off because its just sitting there in the middle of the feats descriptions.
Table 2.2, page 101.
I think it will answer your question.
Not a surprise if you were using the PRD or PFSRD for reference, it's not found in either of them.

Crafting one-handed and two-handed firearms are both a DC 20 check. Siege firearms have higher DCs.
You might wanna check the dates on these threads you necrobump.
