Default NEW Traditions Prairie Hawken Rifle

Was on muzzle-loaders website looking for a kentucky flinter pistol and ran across this instead :slaps:

Looks like there is a market for TRADITIONAL muzzleloaders afterall, otherwise, they would not be introducing new ones!


I REALLY like that rear sight! Thats awesome for my long range shooting I like to do now and then. BUT, I know I'll have to cut a new dovetail and move it forward a few inches. Knowing how to place my rear sight has really spoiled me

They also made them in flinter too. Looks like a fancier lock plate and a new frizzen spring design.


The Flintlock Traditions® Prairie Hawken Rifle is modeled after rifles used during the Rocky Mountain fur trading era of the 1830's. The Prairie™ Hawken rifle is an excellent addition to any shooters collection. These guns were the trusted companions of fur traders and trappers who roamed the rugged western frontier. The Prairie Hawken is a 2-tenon .50 caliber sidelock rifle with flintlock ignition.

The Prairie Hawken features a double-set trigger in an oversized glove-fitting, trigger-guard with finger rest. The rifle also comes complete with classic blackened sliver hardware and a 28" octagonal blued barrel. The rifle features a 1:48" twist and an overall length of 44.5" and 14.5" length of pull.
