George said:Hi, J.D. I remember the Santa Fe Hawken by Uberti, but that's a different gun. The Hawken by Ozark Mountain Arms was American made by a small company in Missouri run by Jean Reynaud, had a Green Mountain barrel, Ron Long lock and double set triggers by L&R Lock Company. The Uberti Hawken was an Italian made gun, apparently one of the more authentic of the imported replicas.

Long Knife said:Ozark Mtn. Arms ,Branson Mo. built custom high quality Hawken style arms circa 1980----. they were not affiliated with any foreign manufacturers. Guns were ordered and custom built one at a time according to the customers requests, cal, barrel length, pull etc. A friend of mine ordered one back "when" and he still has it today....very high quality...

I have one. Bought it in kit form because of the articles in The Bucks in Report by John Baird. At the time there was a shop in Kenosha wisconsin carrying on The Hawken Shop with a gunsmith that used to work supposedly in St Louis. That kenosha store closed but the gunsmith operated a back yard garage shop off Sheridan road and 65th street. I took my kit to him and he assembled the kit to blueprint specs from a blueprint I also got from The Bucks in Report of a 1830s Hawken. I keep the gun locked and not fired because at 73 I still cherish the rifleIs anyone familiar with a Hawken rifle made by Ozark Mountain Arms back around 1980?
