Stewart of the KRAG

[M1 C FAN]

Being pedantic. Stewart is a name, steward is someone looking after things, caretaker, etc.

The second i posted this i saw my mistake and was waiting to see how long it took for that to be mentioned. Didn`t think it would matter enough to most to change. I knew it would only be a matter of time before you couldn`t help yourself.

Since I don't think we can edit the subject lines of threads, the only thing to do is to change your name to Stewart so it makes more sense. If I had such a nice Krag handed down to me, all my kids and grand kids would surely be named Stewart from here on.
Browning, I suppose if one bonded with their spouse over such a very nice Krag, the ensuing excitement could make the title a little less odd. I shall get mine out of the safe tonight and see if it works!

Lucky, I don't even have one now.

The last time i killed an animal with it was when i was 12 on a part of MT. ST. Helens that is no longer there now. The spot blew away 2 years latter. I have been a rifle collector but a Archer ever since i was 16. The brush of the coast range has been my best friend since the late 70s. I only hunt with a firearm now for waterfowl and upland birds. However i did take a nice cinnamon black bear from 1' away with my 1911 a couple years ago while bird hunting. Saw him coming tucked into a crack in the rocks and shot him in the ear as he walked by.

That story reminds me of Fred Bear on the beach taking a Kodiak with a bow. Wonder if the camera man had a 1911 handy, I would have!
Nice rifle, and glad it stayed in the family. Sounds like some great hunting for you guys in the PNW.

I have a hard enough time thinking about taking Kodiak with bow, let alone a .45. I DO have a Fred Bear Whitetail hunter...doesn't mean I'm going after bear though.
