Hawken Style Rifle

by Lyman

33" barrel in .50 cal

 

 

I don't usually sell imported guns but this one belongs to a club member and I took pity I guess. It is a Lyman Great Plains rifle which is one of the better Hawken copies available. The gun has been updated with an L&R Late English lock for better reliability. The steel parts are deeply browned which is turning grey with age. The triggers will fire set or unset. The barrel is 33" long with 2 wedges and a hook breech for easy cleaning just like the originals. Bore is very good and has a touch hole liner. The nosecap is poured pewter. The wood American walnut. The sights have been painted white for better visibility which can be removed if so desired. The gun holds well and would be a good hunting rifle.

 

Weight is 9 lbs. 10oz.     Pull is 14".
