Excellent. I built my own Hawken here in the UK when no one knew what it was. All sourced from the good old Dixie Gunworks catalogue 1979. It still hits the bull at 200yds.
The word Hawken seems to only refer to Jakob and Samual but Christian Hawken also made rifles and they were flintlock. Seems to me Sam and Jacob would also have made flintlocks because the learning to make rifles would had to have been with flintlock.
Hawken is a brand name of mountain rifle. It’s like a lever gun, the best was the Winchester but you had Marlin, Colt had their pump or calling bolt guns Mausers.
If it helps, they do one run a year of percussion caps, usually in summer. Keep an eye out for them online, and order by the box. Once they hit the store shelves when it's getting closer to hunting season, they go fast, and the price goes up.

And percussion caps are still a problem today. Availability
