I done some hunkerin' yesterday

iggy,
I've seen, I've done it, but I could never describe it as you have. Very well done sir.
 
Great story. I've seen the Filipino hunker. It's done with the heels flat on the deck. Don't even try it.:cool:

My LGS owner has a 30's vintage .22. The finish on it is absolutely breathtaking. It has just the slightest bit of holster wear, so at one time this work of art was actually out with it's owner performing some sort of task.

Maybe shooting dinner?

EDIT: WHOA! Year old thread! Oh well, a great story & I'm sure some missed it the first time around. ;)

If you don't mind my asking...

I have decided to pursue a trio of K-22's (a Pre-War, a Transitional, and a Post War Pre-Model).

May I inquire as to what the "30's vintage .22" is at your LGS?
Assuming it's an Outdoorsman?

If it's a gun you're interested in, just say so as I can fully understand and respect if you prefer not to disclose.

Wells,

I don't know how I missed this life's lesson the first go round...

Many a King's ransom has changed hands whilest a hunkerin' ;)

Iggy, I really enjoyed the story and am delighted for you for the acquisition. Your story brought back the reading of Patrick McManus and his stories, some including the art of hunkering. Thanks again.

I reckon between straddlin' too many broomtails and hunkerin' is why so many ol cowboy's knees is so durned bad.:(
