That is a beautiful rifle. I like the darker stocks. I wonder what process was used to get it to look like that.

According to Roy Stroh who browned it,stained it and did the final assembly and inlay..He used a mixture of 3 different stains to get that color.

There's just something about those Hawken guns.  Terrific.

I'm with Bigsmoke on this....Those old Hawkens are absolutely a beauty to behold.
