Traditions Performance Firearms now has the new Prairie Hawken Rifle in stock and available for shipment. The Prairie Hawken Build-It-Yourself kits are also available. 

Based on rifles used during the Rocky Mountain Fur Trading era, the Prairie Hawken rifles were the trusted companions of fur traders as they hunted for pelts. This .50 caliber rifle has a 28" barrel with a 1:48" twist. It features a double-set trigger and two-tenon sidelock design. The Prairie Hawken has custom silver inlays on the mortise and buttstock as well as a custom two-piece fore-end cap. This rifle has a 14.5" length of pull.



Then rifles are available in either percussion or flintlock, as a finished rifle or in a build-it-yourself kit.



For finished rifles, the MSRP ranges from $609-$659, the build-it-yourself kits range from $478-$528.
