SOLD REDUCED .50 TC Hawken (Back Up)

[BigSkyRambler]

Buyer had to back out, so back up. This is a five-digit .50 TC Hawken. In general, it is in very good condition. Seems a former owner may have used a cleaning solution that stripped much of finish on barrel from muzzle to nosecap. No rust or corrosion. Bore is excellent and mirror bright. What you see in the bore is a patch used to mute brightness of bore light. Wood has a few minor dings. Missing ramrod. $375 SHIPPED.

Hmmm? Almost ready for browning with Laurel Mountain Forge degreaser and browning... Very easy ... follow directions. Do it and raise your price. Polecat

I wouldn't personally, it gives it character.

That was my first thought. But then I would have to find trad sights, etc. I'm just like that.

That's a nice piece of wood for a factory gun.

Yep! The early guns had beautifully shaped stocks, much like originals. Then TC decided to go cheap and have a rounded comb. Ewwwww!

I'm starting to feel like Utah Bob over on the SASS Wire. He lives in Colorado. Likewise, despite the handle, I am not in Montana, I am in Arkansas. And rifle price includes shipping, so geography is irrelevant.

I saw what I thought was a reasonable offer from @MtnMan earlier today? Must be my wonky internet service.

Will get back to you. Bore looks very bright and clean when I drop a light down it.

Goes in and comes out with no resistance. Nice and smooth.

Yes, I did give him an offer. I pulled it for a reason. I'll still buy the gun if a picture of the whole bore is shown.

Ummmm? Want to describe process? I ain't set up for colonoscopies. But the photo at muzzle reflects what I can see looking down bore with light in chamber. That is about the best I can do. But if it isn't what I say, send it back for full refund. I have not built a good reputation just so I could scam a guy to make a couple of bucks on a TC.

 

[user 36911]

I'll PM you. Stick around while write it.

if a tightly patched jag has the same amount of resistance muzzle to breech the barrel is good

That is what I feel. Very bright and sharp bore
