Not sure about East of the Appalachian Mountains, but Bison sure ranged West of them. You can check here for more on Bison, but I'd think there are better references to be found.

My wife and I still vividly recall that day. We both thought the lady was a goner. I’ve forgotten where they were from, but it doesn’t matter. One can be an idiot and live anywhere...

My first, and only, buffalo steak was at the Buckhorn Excnange Restaurant in Denver. Wonderful! I bookmarked the above link for the Buffalo website. I’m going to order a couple T-bones.

More of the old Buffalo Commons BS. Depopulate the area between the Mississippi and the Rocky Mountains. Fits in with Agenda 21.

These guns are very near artillery.

I guess you won't be asking to shoot my 5 1/2 pound, fiberglass stocked, 16.5 inch barrel, .45-70 Guide Gun, eh?

Unfortunately, you would have to dive to see it. It was lost in a tragic ice fishing mishap.

The Native Americans were working on destroying the herds long before the paleface arrived. The paleface just used more efficient tools and the Injuns were too few in number to affect the herds significantly.

A common fallacy is that the Native Americans never killed more than they needed and were careful to preserve the herds of wild animals. In fact, they had absolutely no concept of animal management whatsoever.

Oh yea — herding them off a bluff is a pretty blunt tool when all you want is one per household.

Wish I had room to raise a few. Buffalo meant is excellent and very low in cholesterol.

We love it!....elk too.

Au contraire, I would love to shoot your guide gun. I love the 45-70 caliber as the gun does everything well. 150 grain bullet for rabbit, 48 gauge shotgun (410 is 63 gauge)or a 575 grain bullet for the big stuff. And all of these can be done in modern powder or balck powder. A wonderful cartridge.
