I looked around and did a search, couldn't find this vid on here or see other mention. Sorry if someone else did and I missed it. If it does happen this year, then. Yay. 11:18 minute mark.

I watched it earlier this morning. I had a slightly different take in that I interpreted her to say that the design would be finished, not necessarily that the production would begin. I could be wrong, have been before...
I didn't necessarily mean to imply they'd be in peoples hands. With the Fowler there were some promotional events that a pre production sample was shown at. Then leading up to actual availability Mr. K dropped some time frame hints here and there on the forums he is active on.

Has there been any discussion on what calibers the Hawken might be offered in? A 58 would be great in my opinion.

Are there images available yet for this gun? Will it be flintlock or percussion?

Haven’t seen any images as yet, but it will be a percussion from what I’ve read.
Have to keep an eye on his website and YT channel. It was roughly mid-year when he started dropping hints and eventually making mentions in videos about the fowler. He may handle this one differently though whereas the forum is concerned. The guy gets a lot of unnecessary flak on here for some reason.
Bree at Kibler told me a few days ago there was no word or update on them yet, other than Jim was working on it,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

It's a long shot but hoping for a 62 cal rifle that would be awesome
Lots of black powder enthusiasts love a Hawken and percussion. I think Jim would do very well with a half stock percussion rifle with a tapered barrel. Whatever he comes up with will be historically correct. I am keeping my eyes on this one. I mostly shoot flint now, but I'd snatch up the right Hawken kit from Jim.
