I got into traditional bp shooting just over a year ago and finally last spring I found a .54 TC Hawken that I bought immediately at a steal of a price.Shot it this past summer and always wanted a .50 hawken.Well a week ago I found one that the original owner had for 2 years then passed away. It was in storage for 20 years and his son finally decided to sell it. Picked it up yesterday,and took it out today callin coyotes. No luck callin, but this is the first time it had been fired in 20 years and felt great to have it out.It was shot by myself,a 13year old who loved it and a 33 year old buddy who is now converted to traditional bp shooting.Amazing what a front stuffer will do to ppl..This should be a fine place to spend those cold Alberta nights in...cheers all..
