My new acquisition is a eary 54 Caliber T/C New Englander

That's pretty damn cool. Nice pick up!

I don't know what I want more, the rifle, the antler, or the skin.

Very nice.

I've got the blackpowder bug. Picked this one up while in Oklahoma.

Front stuffers are addictive.
I have 2 Sharon barreled fullstock Hawken rifles built in the 70's in .54, one flint and one percussion, a Pedersoli Rocky Mountain Hawken in .54, an unbuilt Sharon Trade rifle kit in .54, an unbuilt CVA Big Bore Mountain rifle kit in .54 (both kits are 1970's vintage, unbuilt in their original packaging.)
I am also working on a .54 Rice tapered barrel Hawken halfstock that will be an accurate replica of a transitional J&S Hawken.
No kit on this one, doing it old school- the stock is a slab of walnut 3" thick, 12" wide and 36" long, will hopefully get the blank cut out this week and start inletting the barrel.
