here are a few crummy photos I took on my porch, it has been raining here. this is a Lyman 54 caliber GPR i rebuilt over the last couple of weeks. I had it for sale but nobody wanted it. so, I made it into an authentic fake Hawken! I completely stripped everything! all the metal, I scrubbed all the sickening righting off the barrel except for the sel, # and date code underneath by draw filing the barrel. I reshaped the stock, especially the cheek rest. I took a pound of wood off this thing! I colored the wood and sealed it. I added a Hawken simi buck horn rear site. I don't know if this gun had ever been shot it was so clean, so i did! I zeroed it in at 50 yds. 75gr. of 2f it sings a pretty tune. I will take some better photos when the weather is better. i might sell this one but I don't have to and I like it. but if somebody is interested send pm,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
