Missouri River Hawken Walnut Rifle Percussion 30" .50

The Hawken is a symbol of the period that saw the passage from the long and heavy small caliber Pennsylvania rifles to more practical and powerful Plains rifles, and the definite abandoning of the flintlock for the far more modern percussion system.  The strong barrel and the larger caliber, enabled hits on any target with surprising accuracy.  This rifle soon became the inseparable friend of the Mountain men, and the most famous explorers of the American continent.  This model is available with a walnut stock. The barrel features an octagonal cross-section, rust brown color finish, and a case hardened lock plate.  It is equipped with an adjustable double set trigger.  This model is a perfect for hunting and target shooting.
