[QUOTE="Bravo 4, post: 1916946, member: 8873"] Sorry guys if someone already brought this up, I stopped reading the thread shortly after. This post immediately got me thinking...If you have your rifle/shotgun lets say the left side and a grizzly bear charges you from the left side are you still going to dismount from the left side where your rifle/shotgun is? Not a grizzly bear expert but the training I’ve had and my experience in combat would tell me to dismount on the opposite side and put the horse between us. That would be kind of like getting out of a vehicle on the contact side of an ambush (if from only one side) instead of going through the vehicle (if possible) and getting out on the noncontact side and putting the vehicle between you and the aggressors for cover. So by the officer’s logic you need a long gun on both sides in case of an attack on either side, Maybe you should learn to shoot ambi too, just in case. I’m down with that.😁 Not an attack on the poster above, just don’t see the officer’s logic. [/QUOTE]
