Well Charles I once hunted quite a bit when my family owned our farm, it was sold in 1993 and my family and I moved to the city - Raleigh, NC. We're originally from eastern NC - around Tarboro. I don't hunt anymore but still have my old skinning knife. However, as far as my choice of rifle it was a Remington .270 bolt action... My philosophy on my choice was that a true scope, and faster to the target round couldn't be beat. It proved a good one for me at least.
We'll see Charles if you still think it will be great to be friends with me. I just asked J.R.'s Southwest Bowie to marry me for crying out loud. I mean c'mon.....
Thanks Charles. I don't have much due to the draconian fire arms laws in the UK. I've got a couple of shotguns and a hunting air rifle but will gladly post some pics when I get them out of the gun safe.
Thank you much! I am strictly an in-line muzzle loading kind of guy, but I've built a swamp mule that will take anything down! Love my Knight Rifles Long Range Hunter .50 cal.!
yes, your correct- the Old Cutler was introduced to compete against the Old timer-
there's not much to add to what probably already know- the knives were near identical accept the old timer had a key type assembly and Colonial Old Cutler used the standard stacking of components then driving a nickel silver pin into the bolsters-
