This is a bit off topic, but, on the plus side, Single shot, black powder .45-70 rifles were used.

This video is about hunting Teddy Bears. PETSA (People fot the Ethical Treatment of Stuffed Animals) is already boycotting it.

That's hilarious!

I just shot milk out of my nose.....odd that I wasn't even drinking milk at the time

You know, if you soak them in water first, then freeze them ....... they make better reactive targets.......

freakin' hilarious.....gotta share that vid with some buddies!

Now that's funny.

Is that you Gehrhard?

I really think the plated, buffered, 00 or 000 buck in 3" Super Magnum would be adequate for these dangerous bruins. Sorry to doubt you.

I thought they had Tannerite hearts... I may have to go hunting teddy bears!

I'm pretty sure that was a smokeless round . . . ?

The nice thing about those breeds of bears is that, unlike turkeys, they come already stuffed.

Love that rug.

Good job, Mike and nice Christmas present

dlbarr · December 30, 2011, 02:38 PM

Hilarious!

Hey Mike, where'd you get that trigger guard on the handi rifle and how did you attach it? I've got a 45-70 HR myself.

Thanks for the entertainment!!

Hi Dlbarr,

That was a small Kentucky rifle trigger guard I got from Dixie Gun Works many years ago.

I cut off the old plastic trigger guard flush with the receiver. Then I inletted the tail of the new guard into the butt stock and secured it with a wood screw. Then I drilled and tapped the receiver for a 10x32 screw and used that to secure the front of the guard.

dlbarr · December 30, 2011, 03:39 PM

Thanks Mike. I have a brass trigger guard or two laying around. I'll see if they might be a fit. Did you disassemble the action to cut that old plastic guard or did you just do it on the gun?

duelist1954 · December 30, 2011, 04:35 PM

I just did it on the gun

Boy, you'd think by now I'd know just what I should show my wife and what I should reserve for my own personal entertainment.

She didn't see the same hilarity that I saw. It wasn't "doghouse bad", but apparently she has a softer spot for ursus theodori than I thought!
