In the early 1800's Jake and Sam Hawken formed a family partnership as gun-makers in St. Louis and began producing their soon to be famous
"Hawken Rifle"...
...In 1990 a new and equally great period of the "Hawken" story began. Greg Roberts and Claudette Greene purchased "The Hawken Shop®" to
preserve this valued part of Americana. Once again the classic
"Hawken" has returned. The Hawken Shop® is also the retail outlet for all other Dayton Traister Inc products including Dayton Traister Triggers and Safeties
and Varner Tang Sights. |
