OK Semi was looking for pictures of my new Hawken. Here is a picture. The silver elite is on top and a standard T/C Hawken below for comparison. Pretty cool looking rifle IMO.

Thatcarbine length Hawken is neat. I have.45 and .54 GM barrels for my Renegade, as well as the original .50 TC barrel. I just may have to cut that TC barrel back to 22" or so.
Nice collection. Of course, the .54 and .58 are missing.

Things I've Learned: (1) It's not possible to please everyone, but quite easy to piss everyone off. (2) If you love animals as I do, then you're not a vegetarian. (3) There's no need to act stupid, even if you're very good at it. (4) If you eat right and exercise, don't smoke or drink, you're going to die anyway.
Thanks Dave.
I had a .54 in a Renegade but I sold the barrel. Maybe some day if I find a Hawken in 54 cal I just might buy it. As for the .58 I think I will pass on that.
If I want to use something that big, I'll just take a bowling ball up a tree with me and drop it on their heads when they go by.

You ought to get one.You would be amazed at the reaction you get when you show your friends your big balls.
I have to admit that I enjoy shooting my .58 just a tad more than most of my other guns.

Nice collection there pal. You must have a lot of fun shooting them. I enjoy shooting my inlines, but nothing is more fun then hunting with a sidelock.
All IMHO of course!!!

Semisane - I get that reaction a lot already from the women folk.
Underclocked - I've been looking for a Cougar for a long time but I either miss it or get out bid. I probably would have missed this silver too if I didn't catch it about 2 hours after it was put on gunbroker.com and I used the 'buy it now' option cause the price was right.
That sure is a pretty one you got there. I love the wood on them.
