> We have a dirty Harry gun. I think that is a 45. > Luckily I don't carry on when Iride.
which reminds me, on a ride recently a woman carried a pistol in a holster on her hip. she said she always liked to carry a gun when she rides, because of snakes etc. After a while I realized I was tense. i kept looking at that gun. For one thing, it was exactly on the spot on her hip where I landed last time i fell off a horse. I kept thinking man that would hurt if you landed on it there, sorta right over the kidney kinda on one side of the lower back. Then i got to thinking, man, if she falls and lands on that pistol, it could go off and shoot ME or my HORSE. It made me nervous. i think if you carry a gun on a horse maybe it should be in a scabbard?? and what if she had shot at a snake, all the horses would have freaked... someone would have hit the ground with the snake. My husband said that type of handgun was very hard to aim and hit a mark from even five feet away. and why shoot snakes really. We are after all in THEIR domain. I believe in killing snakes in my chicken house, poisonous ones, but not in the wild... Janice-- yipie tie yie yo
