"Nice rifle"
TheExpress looks just like a T/C Renegade with a pistol grip stock. My T/C High Plains Sporter has a pistol grip stock also,and is similiarto the New Englander (round barrel).

FWIW I have the MowreyPlains Rifle in 50cal with all brass hardware, including the forend and I love it! They are a modernized copy of the Allen & Thurber design. I bought mine used for $60 ... "broken - as is" ... as the screw securing the hammer was broken off inside the tumbler. I called Mowrey for a new hammer and tumbler and they just sent me the replacement parts for free, but that was a looooong time agonow.
The one I have is IDENTICAL to DJR's rifleshown, down to the all brass hardware, rear semi-Scheutzen style buttstock and all, but mine wears a factory target blade rear sight. These were made for roundball shooting and have a 1-in-66" twist rifling which I believe is only 0.012" deep. I use 0.490 RB with 70grs FFFg and dry-lubed 0.010" strip patches cut at the muzzle.

eldequello,
I love your Hartley Hawken rifle
....wishing I had one!
I planned on posting a picture of my T/C Scout, since you don't see them very often anymore, but after seeing cayugad's collection I decided to show a few more if my muzzleloaders.

Here's a fullstock flintlock Hawken I built once with a cherry stock, German silver furniture, and a Green River Rifle Works .58 caliber, 1" dia barrel. Unfortunately, my camera is pretty limited, so this pic is not too good. I'm working on a .73 cal. Jaeger right now... If it's not too ugly when I get done, I'll post a picture of it.
