8 left (after I ordered one!)
I’m thinking he bear-ly escaped using that technique…The "late" granddaddy barlow
Well gee, someone made the joke already on page 8, but no one in their right mind would whip out their grand daddy Barlow when they have a perfectly good rifle to shoot and a horse to ride away on. Cheesy.
Although, I believe the alternate title for that one was "Damn — Wish I’d Brought My Grand Daddy Barlow!”The box picture is an adaptation of an original painting called “Right of Way” painted by Philip Goodwin who has also painted other cover shots for Remington. The original is just the cowboy and the bear coming face to face on that ledge, it appears they’ve added the knife for this one (and horse). Obviously the knife is the focus this time rather than the rifle so while you may call it cheesy, the marketing was obviously pointed enough to lead you and others to take a bite of that cheddar and talk about the knife lol.

Oh I see- I'm starting to see the artful nature of this photoshopping.The box picture is an adaptation of an original painting called “Right of Way” painted by Philip Goodwin who has also painted other cover shots for Remington.

I think I'd read somewhere in this thread it was 500 pieces.So is this a larger than usual run for GEC? It's been a non-instantaneous sell-out.
Judging by his boots, I'd say he isn't a cowboy anyway, nor a horse rider at all. But I'm not an expert though.The horse had to be in the picture, or the man couldn't have been a cowboy.
Yeah, I'm not much of a fan. My show stops way below $200.I think 200 bucks is a show stopper for all but true fans.
I think there's not very many left based on this post:
probably found it on the corpse of the guy who ran into the bear.They must of found another one, it was briefly out of stock, now there is another available. Get it while it lasts.
