The "historically correct" guys dislike the TC Hawken.
Well and good, it is not a replica of a rifle that would have been found in the Rocky Mountains in 1845. It has too much brass and is not an exact replica.
But it is a beautiful rifle, it is well made, it is a great game-getter and it is American made.
I can see where the purists are coming from, but, I love the TC Hawken and I have killed lots of game with mine.
Some day, I may get a genuine American Hawken rifle from Lyman. Perfect replica of the 1845 Rocky Mountain Hawken. Beautiful rifle. Great shooter.
Made in Italy.
