Managed to pick up the last Hawken kit at Fleet Farm in Rapid City in February. Was able to get started on it a week or so ago and finished it up today. So far, so good.
Test fitting parts and pieces...
After flaming, staining, linseed oiling stock then adding tacks and browning all steel and antiquing brass parts. I did change out the included front and rear sights to make more fur trapper period looking.
Still have to take out and test fire and finish adjusting iron sights. Need to put together some percussion caps using Sharpshooter 22 cap maker.
