A TC Hawken in good shape is worth $300 to $350. Once in a while guys falling to a deal and get one for $100 or so. If you want a rifle to shoot and hunt with the TC Hawken is a better rifle than the TC Cherokee or Seneca.

I`d jump on it for $75. Just a few weeks ago I picked up a real nice .45cal T/C Hawken at a local gunshop for $170. I think I got a good deal. Even if the bore is junk you could part it out and do okay.
hey guys , i ended up buying it turned out the guy left it sitting two years and couldnt get it unloaded . so he was trying to dump it . so i got it for 50 instead of 75. i was able to get it unloaded .and the guns not in the bad of shape , but i have a problem . i was cleaning it and my jig with a patch got stuck at the bottom of the barrel . and its really stuck i pulled the handle off the cleaning rod trying to pull it back out .only thing i can think of is to pur something down the barrel that will deslove the patch and let the jig become free . any thoughts on this ????

a little trick i learned right here on this site : remove the nipple, screw in a 1/4inch grease fittin' finger tight, and pump it out with a grease gun. a bit messy and wastes a little grease but sure was easy. and ya don't hafta worry 'bout rust :haha: . luck to ya, enjoy the gun, and have a good'en neighbor, bubba.
