Cva Hawken Premier

[Fastleo]

My plan is to get the 54 cal barrel on it, blacken the brass and drag it through the woods for the next 30 years. It’s a nice rifle but it’s still a cva. I’m just going to enjoy it. Im not a 50 cal guy and I also really appreciate the weight reduction going to the 54 cal barrel. The 50 cal barrel has chatter marks in the rifling anyways, I have come across quite a few cva barrels that look like this. It didn’t bother me because I only wanted the stock and lock.

Lol still a cva that will fetch a lot of $$$ if that's a real walnut stock.

Wow look at that grain.

That is really nice. I really like the side plate. I just darkened the brass on my CVA Hawken ( not as nice as yours) and I thought it was a good move.

It has a 15/16 50 cal barrel and it’s currently being fitted for a 54 cal barrel. So the barrel is not pictured. I’m planning on blackening the brass as well. It’s actually a decently fitted gun for a cva. After I get it the way I like it, I hope it will be a nice rifle.View attachment 231848View attachment 231842View attachment 231843View attachment 231844View attachment 231845View attachment 231845View attachment 231846

Here is a picture of the darkened brass patchbox on the Hawken I'm working on now. I used Birchwood Casey Brass Black. I didn't take it too dark because I just wanted it to look really aged.

That looks great! I think it helps these cva guns a lot.

Thanks. Won't ever look as nice as that one of yours though.

I bet you could part out that CVA Premier on e-bay and make a fortune on it.
OK, just ribbing you a bit.
Beautiful rifle. SW

I’m going to poke holes in deer with it. I will part ways with the 50 cal barrel at some point. It will help recover funds for the project

I recently picked up another CVA Hawken and the with the original box. It’s called a Hawken Premier. It’s not something I’ve seen before so I thought I’d share. It has way above average wood with curl in walnut. I’m not sure how many are out there but it’s definitely something to keep an eye out for.

I am a fan of U.S. made CVA's and own a few but have never heard or seen one so fine looking. You done good my friend.

That’s one crazy stick of walnut on that gun. Congrats on getting that one.
