And the photo is of me back in the day, It was taken in the Crazy Mountains in Montana when I was a wilderness ranger for the US Forest Service. The Crazies are an awesome place where you can sit back and watch mountian goats all day long playing around on the high cliffs. We would disappear in to the mountains for weeks at a time with saddle and pack horses and mules, in the this area we were allowed to use chainsaws (I was wearing saw chaps in the pic) but most areas it was crosscut and axe work. There where some griz and mountain lions in the areas we worked that is why I had the hog leg on. It is a Ruger Vaquero stainless with a 45LC cartridge, I was loading her up with a 255gr slug in front of fff black powder loads. That load hit like a freight train and can hold a tight group. If I ran into the two legged feral variety the look of the big barrel coming out of the leather usually quieted them down:msp_biggrin: I do miss them days, nothing mattered in the rest of the world once I was in the saddle leading a pack train along a mountain trail :cowboy:
