Peace of mind and actually being able to shoot it.................two different things.


Sounds like the gun was in his backpack, since he had to go get it.


Or it could've been in a holster on his packs hip belt. Fact is, we dont really know what happened or have 10% of the facts of the incident. But like so many other threads here filled with speculation and Billy badassery everyone's hindsight is 20/20, when in actuality most here slinging schit dont have the stones to hunt in griz country.
