What’s Included
- Thompson Center T/C Hawken .45 caliber percussion rifle
The Hawken percussion action uses an external hammer with a half-cock notch and a caplock ignition that includes a clean-out screw. The double-set trigger arrangement with an adjustable set screw offers a refined trigger setup consistent with traditional muzzleloading practice.
The 28-inch octagonal barrel is paired with a hooked breech and an under-rib. Sighting is handled by open iron sights: a dovetailed front blade and an open rear sight with a step elevator. The 1:48 twist rifling supports versatile .45 caliber muzzleloading use.
The hardwood, walnut-colored half-stock includes a cheekpiece and a brass patchbox. Brass furniture continues through the rifle with a brass trigger guard, buttplate, nose cap, and ramrod pipes, plus an oval brass fore-end inlay for a classic, period-correct look.
Factory scroll engraving on the lockplate adds a tasteful detail to the Hawken pattern. This single-shot muzzleloader is part of the Hawken series, is American-made, and is a faithful reproduction of the iconic frontier rifle. Capacity is 1 round, and the length of pull measures 14.75 inches.
