you can contact Thompson Center Arms and ask them, for the correct answer. In order to know the worth, you would have to know what model it is, what condition, its in, etc. The newer inline hunter models are alot cheaper than the older traditional side lock percussion or flintlock models in fine condition. The long Pennsylvania type rifles are a little higher. I'd say a normal percussion sidelock .45 ,cal good condition, anywhere from $300 to $400, but it could be slightly more or less. good luck
We want to know how much a 45 Thompson Center Arms Hawkens black powder is worth Serial #4161? The gun was bought new app. 1976. Thank you Lawana Summers
brand new with all paper work and box in unfired condition is $1200 to $1400
in 1810, an American gunsmith, John H. Hall, invented a breech-loading flintlock rifle that could be loaded quickly using a paper cartridge containing ball and powder.
For the 1990 movie Quigley Down Under, Tom Sellick's character Quigley used a 1874 Sharps Rifle, a custom 13-pound [6 kg] single-shot, with a 34-inch [86-cm] barrel as opposed to a standard length barrel of 30".
the rifle, a mannlicher-carcano rifle, is in the US national archives.
He did it in bed with his rifle and the rifle accidently went off and shot him in his vagina.

Depends on the Thompson. If you mean the Thompson submachine gun, yes, they were made in caliber .45 ACP (and other calibers as well). However, there are other Thompsons. I have a Thompson Center muzzleloading rifle that is .50 caliber.
100-300 USD
Most black powder bores have a twist that is relatively slow. Say 1:36 or 1:50. They were 1:48 twist in 45 and 50 caliber
I Sold mine for 100 dollars
You will have to tell us if you are talking about black powder or center fire.
100-300 USD depending on condition.
$400-$450
You can download manuals from the Thompson Center website listed here in the related links, you can also find a phone number there to request a hard copy. You will need to know the model. In this case the 25th anniversary Hawken, same specs apply as the standard Hawkens rifle.
You will have to call TC to find out.
You can contact Thompson Center Customer Service through their website for help. They are still in business, you know. BTW, really good rifles.
