Rocky Mountain Hawken Walnut Percussion Rifle 34-5/8" .54

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. The rifle soon became the inseparable friend of the Mountains men, and the most famous explorers of the American continent. This Rocky Mountain features a walnut stock with a barrel having 7 grooves obtained by broaching, rust brown colour finish, steel metal parts.
