I did a build along in the builders bench this earlier this year (new hobby/Hawken build), which I now know it is not a hawken. It is a half stock built from a walnut blank using a CVA Hawken barrel, lock and hardware is basically CVA mountain rifle and a self made ram rod. Total cost to me was right at 200.00 for all the parts. This is the first gun I have built and learned a lot. Number 2 in the works now with added challenges. thanks for the complimentI think I missed something; what is the gun? I thought I recognized it but there are details that I don't recognize. Great job in any event. Polecat
