This is the link to BlackHart Long Arms Company which still produces the Hills Fowler the Revolutionary War rifle made by Benoni, Col Medad and John Hills in Goshen, Conn.

These reproductions are still handmade and come up for sale on ebay from time to time. I also have a copy of the American Gunsmith? article on the weapons made by John Hills, gunsmith of Charlotte, Chittenden Co Vermont who was one of Medad's brothers.
In addition to the Hills guns, the family is also connected to the Spencers of the Spencer Rifle factory.
