Me. I did this! ;D The barrel is one from Jerry Cunningham of Orion Barrel Company. The stock I got from Track of the Wolf. The lock and breech I got from Davis Lock Company. This one has Cain's Hawken triggers on it. I have been experimenting with making guns look well cared for but frontier used but not 200 years old. Thanks for liking her! Thanks for fixing the picture Grzz. I must not know what I am doing yet.

This was a HH7 stock blank from Track of the Wolf. Just a rough stock plank. I never could get the nack of building from a pre-carve. I am too hard headed and want to make my own mistakes. ;D

Yep, those there guns look like they sure would match buckskin leather nicely.. pretty wood.. reminds me of a brindle dog I once had.. he had stripes like a tiger. With white paws and chest....mostly boxer. anyway fine looking guns, Cooner.

Nice looking Hawken cooner. Sure beats the looks of my old TC Hawken that I've had for about 30 years or so.

That one at the top is the one that shoots the same ball and patch combo as my trade gun. The second one I let a friend have in a swap up in Michigan. His daughter is gonna go buffalo hunting with it.
