That's a great looking rifle!  I'll never understand, though, about some rifles being called "fantasy" rifles.  As far as I know, the old makers didn't build "cookie cutter" guns.

the quite common "fantasy" monicker comes from the fact that so far no real half-stock hawken flinters have been discovered either in print or reality.
