The Hawken rifle is a muzzle-loading rifle that was widely used on the prairies and in the Rocky Mountains of the United States during the early frontier days. Developed in the 1820s, it became synonymous with the "plains rifle", the buffalo gun, and the fur trapper's gun. It was displaced after the Civil War by breechloaders (such as the Sharps rifle) and lever-action rifles. In 1858, the shop passed to other owners who continued to operate and sell rifles bearing the Hawken name: William S. Hawken, William L. Watt, and J. P. Gemmer. Gemmer closed the business and retired in 1915.

  • O rifle Hawken é um mosquete por antecarga, construído pelos irmãos Hawken que foi usado nas pradarias e nas montanhas Rochosas dos Estados Unidos durante os primeiros dias da fronteira. Tornou-se conhecido como ""plains rifle"" ("rifle das planícies"), ou "buffalo gun" ("arma de búfalo") ou ainda "fur trapper's gun" ("arma do caçador de peles"). Desenvolvido na década de 1820, acabou sendo substituído por modelos por retrocarga (como o rifle Sharps) e rifles por ação de alavanca que floresceram após a Guerra Civil Americana. Os rifles Hawken tinham reputação de alta precisão e longo alcance. (pt)
