SOLD .58 Investarms Hawken Rifle for parts. Only shot twice! Left handed.

[Flintlock Whiskey]

No, the header is not a joke. The pics tell most of the story. This was purchased by my late Uncle. Let us say that it is an example of why one should never lose track of their loading procedure. I was there when it happened. We were yaking it up too much and when he squeezed the trigger it made an "unusual" report. He removed the blown part of the barrel and wanted to make it into a carbine of sorts, he never got around to it. The barrel on this is probably recoverable but will never be great. So, buy it for parts or re-barrel it. It is a left handed gun. Price includes shipping. It may ship in two separate boxes. I will reduce the price by $25.00 if it ships without the barrel, all the barrel hardware will be removed and sent along with the rest. I will take a personal check with the understanding that the gun will not ship until it clears my bank. Postal m/o is ok, moneygram may hold up shipping until it clears. Shipping included in the CONUS only. AK will be more. No shipping outside the U.S.A.
Reduced to $325.00
EDIT: The ball was only short started and not rammed home.

Looks like some smokeless made its way to the range?

No, not at all, just short started and not rammed home. I guess I should edit it to reflect that.

I’ve seen smokeless results. Usually splits near the breech. Would guess this example was short starter incident.

Edit - I was typing when FW posted and didn’t see his response.

ahhh. First I have seem of that. I know the dagners just not the results. OUCH!

BTW I just sold (through UPS) that same rifle with a plastic stock to a member. I had actually ordered the carbine from Cabelas (looked realy close to your offering) and returned it and for the longer version. Mine shoots REALLY well. So well I ordered a second one with wood stock just like yours. This may now be a great blind gun for big creatures.

Amazing the pressure that’s generated! What was the normal load for this rifle? I understand it doesn’t take much.
