    Very first muzzle loader build finished!

    Looks nice. I too just finished building my first kit from traditions. I didn't install the plastic sights. Click on my name and check out my "sights" post. There is some great info in that thread. The guys here are really helful. I ordered metal sights (as close as I could get to original...

    Hawken Kit is DONE!

    It's a .50 cal. and it's made by Traditions. The kit was somewhat poor. I had to really work the stock to get all the parts to fit correctly. I guess you get what you pay for. Should be a good rifle for my introduction into muzzleloading, and if I don't like it, I'm not out a ton of money. If...

    Hawken Kit is DONE!

    I'm now a proud owner of my first muzzleloader, and I built it from a kit. I want to thank all of you that helped me through the build by answering all my dumb questions. After a lot of sanding, fitting, staining and browning, I think it turned out pretty nice. Once I get the sights from TTW, I...

    which hawken sights are right??

    It is made by Traditions and I purchased it from Possible Shop (Cabela's and Bass Pro also sell the same one). I know it's not a very high quality kit, but it's my first muzzleloader and I since I am kind of getting back to the roots of firearms, I thought it would be fun to build a kit. I want...

    New to ML, What do I need?

    To everyone, thanks for all the great advise. And, you were right...it has as many extras as golf. I have a few packages on the way with all the accessories I will need to shoot my new rifle. I am in the process of working the stock now sanding it to fit the parts, I'm loving it. I'll post a pic...

    which hawken sights are right??

    I am in the process of building a Hawken rifle kit (percussion). It came with plastic sights that I'm not mounting. I have looked for the correct sights and didn't have much luck....there are many variations. Does anyone know of a link, or have a picture of the sights that are proper for this...

    New to ML, What do I need?

    I had a feeling I came to the right place for advise. About 5 years ago I told myself I only needed one "fun" shooter, a M1 garand. After watching many episodes of Hicock45 on youtube and 20+ battle proven rifles later (so I'm familiar with dirty,corrosive ammo), I thought a ML would be a fun...

    New to ML, What do I need?

    I just purchased my first muzzle loader from the Possible Shop. I got a ST. LOUIS HAWKEN RIFLE KIT made by Traditions. I have many firearms, but the muzzle loader is uncharted territory for me. I am excited to build and shoot my newest addition. I am sure this question has been asked by almost...
