TC Hawkens Sights

[Mongo40]

Ok, I've found everything I need to make this old TC 45cal hawkens look the way I want at TOTW except the rear sight, I want one of the rear sites for it like October Country sells with there hawkens kits but can't find it by itself, I know I've seen it somewhere but now that I want it I can't find it, Could someone clue me in as to where I can get one??? For the front sight TOTW recommended I order there FS-TC-HB front sight, which is a silverbladed brass based front sight, I really would like to replace it with a silver bladed iron based sight. Thanks

I think this is the one you're looking for. It's sold by The Gun Works Muzzleloading Emporium. I'm thinking of getting this sight myself. http://www.thegunworks.com/custprodgun.cfm?ProductID=906&do=detail&Cat2Option=yes

I bought this rear sight from The Hawken Shop. I comes without any holes. I didn't want the extra hole like you end up with with the one from The Gun Works. You can buy just the sight or get a complete kit with every thing you need except the front sight from The Hawken Shop. I used a Renegade blade front sight on my rifle and I didn't have to file the front sight for zero. Just regulated the depth of the notch in the rear sight.

If you want to redo your rifle with steel furniture you can also get this Patchbox from The Hawken Shop.

If you don't like the third hole you could find the appropriate six screw, screw it in, then cut it off. It shouldn't be too visible after that.

Robert do you have a pick of the front sight your using and did you get it from the Hawkens shop also, I like your buckhorn but I don't own a drill press to drill and counter sink my own holes. looks good though, I might get that one for my 50cal along with the front sight you mentioned, as for the third hole on the one I did order, if it looks distracting I'll try and fill it if not my get my jewelers files out and make it decorative some how. Thanks guys.

The front sight I used is off a Renegade. It is a partridge sight blade that is .100 thick. I bought it on ebay. TOW has the same sight FS-D37-I. You can see the front and rear sights on my Rifle.
