THE HAWKEN PISTOL finished, finally!

Jud's beautifully distressed workbench is a fitting backdrop for this enormously complex and laborious project - a .69 cal Hawken Pistol.
The large calibre of this pistol precluded the use of "off the shelf" components. Thus every single part of this pistol had to be fabricated by hand!
The author personally fired this pistol on 3/13/2015 and can attest to its accuracy and excellent functionality.
