This appears to be an earlier Thompson Center Hawken, judging the serial number (107367). It is a “pre-warning” version. It’s in very nice shape for its age. A few minor scrapes or dings here or there, but not much to speak of. I’ve had it for 10+ years and shot it very little, and it didn’t appear to have been shot much when I got it.

Forgive the multiple name cards. I took some photos over the summer and intended to list it, but didn’t quite get around to it. I took a couple new ones today and included the serial number for verification

$450 shipped CONUS, where legal. USPS money order preferred.

Weight barrel length etc? Double or single trigger? What year was it made?

Maybe include a pic of the entire rifle it’s only shown in smaller sections
 
All TC Hawkens are the same unless they have been altered, 28" barrel, 1 in 48 twist, double set triggers. I have a twin to that rifle but I took some wood off the stock to make it slenderer, mine weighs 7.1 pounds, figure around 8 pounds for a stock model.

The pe-warning guns were made before 1986, there are no surviving records to link a serial number to a date of manufacture, an unfortunate company fire destroyed them.

Check you PMs TRex I will tell you something else about the gun.

If you click on the photos, they are full-size. They just look abbreviated in the posting. It is a double trigger. I haven’t weighed/measured it, but as @Eric Krewson indicated, it appears the same as all the TC Hawkens I’ve seen. I can see about getting some measurements this weekend if necessary.
