Description


One of the best ways to get a real hands-on muzzleloading experience is to build a rifle yourself. Easy to read instructions guide you through the building process to a finished product. There is no greater feeling of accomplishment than knowing you built a fully functional rifle for shooting or display. 

The Traditions® St. Louis Hawken™ kit is made for the serious hunter. The St. Louis Rifle maintains the classic styling and handling of the time-honored Hawken, while offering great performance and affordability. The percussion model boasts a hooked breech for easy barrel removal, and click-adjustable rear hunting sight. The Hawken features a double-set trigger in an oversized glove-fitting, trigger-guard with finger rest. The rifle also comes complete with classic brass embellishments and inlaid solid brass patch box.

The Traditions™ St. Louis Hawken is .50 caliber percussion rifle sporting a 28" uncured octagonal barrel. The rifle has an overall length of 44.5" and weighs 7 7/8 lbs. To provide the best kit experience, the barrel will need to be finished with a blueing or browning treatment. The stock will also be unfinished and some light woodworking may be needed to ensure a proper fit.

Impressive Kit

I was somewhat skeptical about the kit, but, I’ve wanted a Hawken gun for 47 years. When I received the kit, I was excited by the quality. I had sent pictures to my sons of the rifle with the pre fitted components. Both my sons were excited and expressed their desire to build one someday.
So, after a couple of days working on the stock, I placed another order for two more kits. I know they will enjoy building one with my grandsons. See, it’s not hard being the cool granddaddy.

He loved it!

I purchased this for my son’s 18th birthday. He spent 2 days building and staining it. The pride he put into the detail was obvious. Then came shooting… he was ecstatic! It shot straight from the very first shot. He is one very happy 18 year old, and I am one very satisfied mother and customer. Customer service was wonderful when I was trying to navigate what supplies I needed to purchase with the gun. All accessories were of good quality. I’m a very satisfied customer and highly recommend this gun and the company.

My St. Louis Hawkins muzzleloader project.

this is a really nice kit. There’s just enough work to put it together that you feel like you’ve done a project. Have yet to stain the wood and stain the barrel let you know when I have that done.

Awesome gift!

My husband has wanted a Hawkins gun kit for as long as I can remember. I bought this for his birthday and couldn't be happier!! He absolutely loves it. He has been working on it for about a week and is almost done. This is a beautiful piece of craftsmanship that will be in our family for a long time! I highly recommend!

Beautiful gun

I had been wanting one of these for awhile, and when Muzzleloader.com had it at a great price I had to get it. Still a build in progress but so far everything has been pretty easy. Have to get the wood shavings out and dry fit but that is part of the fun. Definitely a great buy and I am sure it will shoot great.
