Nice I am waiting on a nib big boar should be here next week.

Nice, I just picked one up about a month ago and I STILL haven't had it out yet. It had to go to the back of the line haha and the reason there is a line is because of the damned heat/humidity I just cant take that anymore. I'll go out in 5 degrees before I go out in 80-90 no thanks.

The article in this link doesn’t say a single thing about a Hawken TC

Gregie Boy can keep them!!!! I have all the originals and bet these new ones will not compare plus I stay far away from anything these tv personalities have anything to do with!!! Those clowns were the demise of normal hunting for normal folks!!! Shooter Buck Shooter Buck drooling and havin a fake heart attack not about feeding your family!!!! All about the Benjamin’s nope they can keep them. All needed is for Mr Kibler to bring out a Hawkens and Gregie would fold up!!! Sorry for the rant, Reds

And I'd say that's a conservative estimate.

That's great, but they never made custom-type 'Hawkins'; all good, though.

springfield art · Aug 30, 2024

I guess the term "Hawken-type" would apply; only a dead ringer or custom could be truly called 'Hawken'. Glad to hear it, though; if there's a demand, that's a good thing.

I watched the whole Hornady Podcast #141 with Gregg Ritz and nowhere in it did I hear him say he was going to bring back the TC Hawken or any sidelock. So, unless there is another podcast I think the only Hawken coming out in the future will be a Kibler. Please correct me if I missed something.

Personally, I think it is fantastic that Gregg Ritz and others like him are still willing to invest in our gun culture (read that as all guns) and go out on a financial limb to do it. Especially given the attitude of our government (or lack thereof) towards guns. Also keeping it in the US with US employees. All gun owners need to stick together no matter what type of gun they shoot.

I'm looking forward to the Kibler Hawken.
I will buy a new TC Hawken also.

The Kibler and TC Hawken comparison is interesting. Hard to imagine that that Kibler would not be superior, especially if price is close.

I'll keep my TC Hawken kit with Hoyt fast twist .50 barrel

Tasbay · Aug 30, 2024

Just watched a YouTube podcast, 5 hours old, where the manufacture of the Contender, Encore and some other I didn`t recognise was stated. No mention of Traditional Muzzleloaders though watched another YouTube video where the new CEO was shooting a Hawken and comparing it to a Bolt action so who knows.
I have 2 T/C Hawken, one flint and one Percussion. I would seriously consider a third if new.

Please tell me what firearm company is not out to turn a profit on their product? Remington? S&W? Sig?

You think they make firearms out of the goodness of their hearts? You think they say "Let's try to break even this year guys"?

NMHawken · Aug 30, 2024

I'm looking forward to seeing their new offerings! Still shooting a 70s TC "Hawken" my Dad built, I added a 32" Green Mountain 50 cal PRB barrel.

sussexmuzllodr · Aug 30, 2024

never make them like the ones they did.
I would be shocked...

gunpa · Aug 30, 2024

Ritz did say they have all the original tooling from TC.. for what that's worth.

snakebit · Aug 30, 2024

I have 4 T/C's. Would make room for a 5th. A Kibler Hawken would be nice too.

Oh hell yeah on the Kibler hawken. How many of us have a TC Hawken? How many want a Kibler Hawken? Personally I wouldn’t make room in the safe for a new TC anything. I know how Kiblers are built and who builds them. That’s what I want.

They will be quality for sure. A Cadillac compared to my GPR Flinter. That patent breach gives me fits.

I wouldn't bother. Loose money going out of Buisness again.

You can buy them anyday of the week online $300 $400 $500.
