Ok. So your comments and myself reading a little more indepth about the TOTW kits I have decided to scratch that idea. Earlier this year I bought a Green Mountain drop in for my Hawken. After dropping it in I am not pleased with the look of it. I have been looking at pictures on the web of full stock Hawkens. Is it feasable to use T/C hardware on a build like this and is it possible to even do with the barrel I have?
 
Pecatonica River has half and full stocks that are pre-inlayed for Thompson Center parts.

See link http://www.longrifles-pr.com/thompsoncenter.shtml

Pecatonica River supplies Track of the Wolf with their stocks and, like the TOTW guns this isn't a "drop in" stock.

A bit of fitting and a whole lot of sanding and some shaping is required to get a nice looking gun.

Yes, it is. As Zonie stated, PR has TC inlet stocks, half and full. I restocked my TC Hawken a few years ago and reused the original TC parts (I did this because I wanted a bit more drop in the stock than the factory TC Stock had). I don't remember having any issues, I cut the length of pull to what I wanted, modified the nose cap area, and did some other cosmetic changes I wanted. I should have thinned it out more (they come with a lot of extra wood) and changed the lock panels but I didn't know any better then. :idunno:
 
I did the same. The big difference is my TC hawken now has a custom designed thumbhole stock. Not correct in any manner normally accepted on this site, but it still is a sidelock. I've learned a lot hanging around here the last year, and the currant project is much the same, only as a fullstock flinter. I will be removing a lot more wood.

Oooh La La, that is sweet!
I like that trigger guard, the factory TC guard has to be the most awkward one I have used.
