This is my list of rifles from the late 60's to 80's time period. I have a few others that are not in that time period.
 
I now have a pair of T/C 45 caliber Hawkens, in May of 1976 my father went to a gun shop and bought one in the morning. I though he had hit is head or something as we had modern varmint rifles of the times and did a lot of shooting. That night I went over and bought the other 45 the store had. This started me into collecting black powder guns and hunting with the 45 and also original muzzle loading guns. Last fall my father passed away so now the 2 1976 Hawkens are at my place
 
Right now, the one that I recall and would like to own is a Leman percussion rifle copy which was popular then.

I can't recall who made it though.

T of W makes a full-stock kit, but no ready-made Lemans that I am aware of.
