T/C for years carried a mount that would clear the hammer on the rifle. CVA also did. But I think through just lack of interest (because traditional shooters did not use scope and a lot of states out lawed them at the time) the sale of these items was so poor that they kind of faded away. There are some out there floating around.
What make of Hawkins carbine do you have as the distance on the flats and the hole patterns change from brand to brand. I have a few sets of scope plates that you can then add a weaver base to, and then your set of rings. I can find them and see if they might help you.. if you give me the make of the Hawkins.
I never tried those gorilla grips. I will have to call T/C some time and talk to them about those things.
Thanks for teh suggestions guys.
Dave, it is an InvestArms Hawken Carbine that I got from Cabalas.
Idon'tknow, maybe Ishouldjust leave the scopestothe inlines and find a good peepsight for thecarbine. It is just that the eye sight is not getting anybetter and I need some help.
rafsob, I have the same rifle you have, Investarms made them for Cabelas, I also have TC. and Green mountain barrels which are the same as far as the scope mounts, but Investarms is different.
The top one is a green mountain barrel, second one is Investarms, And the third is a renegade with a weaver mount that is hard to find
The Investarms doesn't have the hole tapped back by the hammer formounting.
