Let's Build a CVA Hawken from the 1980s Part 1 | Overview & Dry fitting | I Love Muzzleloading

Learn more at ilovemuzzleloading.com We are building a 20th-century muzzleloading classic, a CVA Hawken Kit in this video series. This kit is not mine, it's owned by a local family who asked me to finish it after their father had passed before he could finish it. I'll be taking the kit through various stages of woodworking, metalworking, and then wood and metal finishing to bring out the family heirloom hidden within this kit. I'll be using a variety of files, sandpaper, wood carving chisels and more.
