I bought one 10 yrs ago for 150usd again its impossible to tell with out knowing the condtion
Depending on exact model and condition, $150-$225. While these are very good traditional muzzle loading rifles, the market interest is on in-line muzzle loaders. I just purchased a used Excellent condition TC Hawken for $200, and am very pleased with the rifle.

The records are sketchy at best for most modern BP guns as far as manufacture dates. Many of the CVA guns made in Spain have a serial number that looks like this; 492.1234567 this would be a tell tail for being made in April of 92. as for general dates they were made from the late 70s to 1995
With that serial number it sounds like a spanish import, CVA, Sile NY, BPI, Navy Arms, Cabela's to name a few, have all at some point imported a Hawken that would fit that description, Though it is more likely a CVA or Navy Arms with the 86 prefix.
CVA (conneticut valley arms) made (imported) a .58 hawken many years back. The AB date code would make it a 1976 manufacture.
I have a .50cal Plainsman black powder rifle and had the same question. I found the 2 links below that show a gun that looks almost identical to mine and they each list CVA as the manufacture: http://www.gunsandammomag.com/cs/Satellite/IMO_GA/Gun_C/CVA+Plainsman http://www.auctionarms.com/search/printitem.cfm?ItemNum=8317215 I hope that helps.
there is not a recall on the blazers but if you return the rifle to cva repair and request a replacement they will send you a nice new refurbished rifle I've done this twice with two of my old rifles
