GRRW copy??

[goblue1885]

I don't know much about GRRW rifles, although I have one in a 58 caliber flintlock. What a fantastic quality rifle! As I've tried to research this rifle, I came across another rifle stamped as being made by GRRW along with the maker of Hogan. (I don't own this one so I don't have pics.) This rifle does not look anything like the rifle I have nor like any other GRRW rifle pics I've seen. Virtually every feature and component looks different right down to the lettering. I can't find any source showing Hogan as one of their makers either. I've read that GRRW ran short of parts and sometimes used other sources. I'm wondering if someone acquired a GRRW barrel and assembled a rifle with their own parts and then stamped their own name on it. Anyone have any other explanations? I'm just curious.

There are some very knowledgeable members on here that have a lot of info about GRRW production. If you post some detailed pics it would help.

I have a GRRW Hawken that they helped me identify.

Good luck, Don
