WANTED Wanted T/C Hawken Rear Sight

[BillRob]

On a mule deer hunt last week I saw that I had lost part of the rear sight on my .54 T/C Hawken. Despite the fact that the sights are getting hard for my aging eyes to see, I want to get it back to the way it has been all these years. It is a very early 80's model. I have the base and stem, but have lost the sight, windage screw, bushing and lockdown pin. I would love to buy the entire sight or just the missing parts. The base screws center about 13/16." The stem is about 4/10" wide. Can anybody help? Thank you!

They came with a lifetime warranty. I shipped them by barrel and they sent it back with the sight repaired.

Good luck with that now.

If your eyes are failing , you can get a neat little peep sight for those rifles .

I can actually shoot it pretty well - except in low light. The sights just kind of disappear. (Might be one reason the doc said it was time to start thinking about cataract surgery!) I remember using a fiber optic sight on a compound bow a couple decades ago, and I could sight it until it was almost dark - but I just can't bring myself to putting them on this gun...... at least not yet.

Cataract surgery, best thing I did for my shooting.

Thank you all for your input. I found the exact replacement on ebay of all places. Now the gun is back together and the long wait begins for next season.....

Waiting for next season before taking the gun out could cause a case of separation anxiety……

No doubt! Not only that - if I had spent a little more time with it in the off-season this whole thing might have been avoided!!

prolly not. i think gremlins collect the pins that keep those sights of that style together. i have 2 or 3 i have to make new pins for all the time. lucky i see/hear when they come apart.
