Interesting, I'm newly retired and thinking about a side hustle
I've no idea what something like this would be worth

Honestly, that's what I thought as well.
With time parts and shipping I'd make a lot more part time at McDonalds

I'd like to see some of those, OTBF would be a good place.

Post by: MuskratMike on January 19, 2024, 10:47:55 PM: I would say it is they had hardwood, leather and antlers. Fancier than I have seen but would pass muster with me.

Politically Correct ? Probably not
Plastic, definitely not
Title: Re: Forked antler shooting stick
Post by: MuskratMike on January 21, 2024, 05:39:51 AM: I don't see any plastic. Wood, antler, leather, leather thongs and a brass tack. Historically correct, probably not but something like it probably much cruder I am sure was. Regardless it is seriously cool, and I would love to have it and would definitely use it.

Wasn't made to be historically correct. If it is in any way then that's just luck.
Was made because my long rifle is @#@$% heavy !!
