Have a line on one. It is a percussion rifle and the owner has no history. It is a .45. Looks just like a Lyman GPR with a 28" barrel. In fact the pictures could be anyone of a number of suppliers. I did read the company was absorbed by Pedersoli. I'm wondering most about twist rate? Anyone know anything about these rifles?

Euroarms was bought out by Taylor & co. about 15-20 years ago. If I remember right the Hawken's were made for Euro by Investarms an Italian copy of the T/C Hawken with a 1 in 48" twist just like the T/C.

It sure looks like an Investarm in the pic. At least some hope for getting parts. If I can buy it right I'll take a chance. I have a Deerstalker flint lefty I like a lot.
