US companies have a hard time competing due to taxes, comp, insurance, property taxes, wages and benefits and cost of utilities
 
While this is good news there is no way they are going to sell a new rifle for less than a grand.
I think the 1200 guess is likely.

But will they back their products with a similar guarantee as the old company did back in the day.

Kind of concerned that they will go and make the new guns incompatible with the old guns. Betcha won't be able to slap an old lock in one of their new guns. Just a gut feeling, I have nothing to go on really other than my knowledge of corporate greed.
I think they know they'll need to be competitive, or buyers will look elsewhere.
 
I have seen repo Italian lever actions 1873 Colts Sharps rifles civil war muskets etc and I say it is almost impossible to surpass the quality
Yes they can make some good one for sure but for some reason they still suffer from soft screws.
 
If you want a Hawken, just gets some parts and build one. You will end up with a better gun and like it more because you built it.
Build one lol. look up gunsmiths of williamsburg 1969 on you tube. after they forge a flat piece of steel they beat it in a jig to start rounding and the seam gets welded while it is red hot. they forge all the lock parts. making the stock is fascinating the whole video is.
