SOLD SOLD.....Fullstock Hawken .50 percussion

[GANGGREEN]

I built this from a TOTW kit a number of years ago. I'm reasonably sure it was a Green Mountain barrel and Siler percussion lock. The stock is really quite beautiful and otherwise the fit and finish of the parts is pretty good. It's a roundball twist, but I've had OK consistency shooting a few Hornady PA bullets over a felt wad with it as well. One of the wedge keys has been replaced and is a bit proud on one side (which I may "fix" before shipping) and that's really the only thing wrong with it. It has light handling and wear from normal use, but really hasn't been afield very much, so there are no noticeable scratches, dents, etc.. The barrel is 1" straight by 36" long. Length of pull is 14.375" and I THINK the gun weighs roughly 9.5 pounds. If anyone needed to know specifically, I'd be glad to go weigh it for you.

I'd like $1150 for it including shipping in a custom wood crate. If anyone is close enough to meet me for pickup, I'd charge $1050 without shipping (shipped a gun yesterday and was shocked at the cost through USPS).

Nice rifle, does this have a hooked breech?

What is the overall length

 

[nessmuk]

PM sent.

 

[GANGGREEN]

I think the overall length is 54", but it's got a 36" barrel. Maybe 52" overall, I was building a shipping crate yesterday and think 54" was my outside dimensions, so likely it would be slightly less than that. I'll confirm and post the answer here when I'm able (sometime this afternoon).

Hooked breech, yes, I think so. Honestly, I built it a long time ago and don't shoot it much, nor have I ever removed the barrel, but my recollection (which isn't always great) was that I spent a good bit of time fitting the hooked breech, getting the tang/breech inlet, etc.. I don't have access to the rifle right at the moment, but I can surely run it out to the shop and pull the barrel to confirm for you, I'll try to do this today as well.

 

[GANGGREEN]

In answer to a couple of questions, yes, it has a hooked breach and the total length is 53.5 in.
