Cool idea, Mud Dog! A horseman specialist! Nice! Didn't think of that as a specialty, per se. But, I can see where it IS a specialty and can be needed in special environments better-suited to a well-trained horse, as opposed to machine.

Nice touch, too, about the M-1 Garand. A lot of folks don't have the background with firearms that was common even in our fathers and grandfathers age. Many of us "city boys" grow up without them altogether. Yah, sure--some folks would say there are too many firearms in the cities now, what with drug dealers and criminal element and such, but properly trained firearms users are fairly uncommon. Takes more training than loading up the magazine and pointing and pulling the trigger--any fool can do that and feel like "King of the 'Hood."

Good stuff, Mud Dog. I like the thought you put into the things you make and do.
