Some of those rifles don't look to be much over 20"... and my 20" "short rifle" is more of a "carbine" than my M4gery ever was...

Great old photos, I like hunting the old fashioned way.
Way too many techno gizmos these days to even make it proper sport, the critters we hunt haven't got any more difficult to kill since Davy Crockett was a boy!.

Them boys was hunters. They also came from a different time and place where getting the meat was the game, not just getting out for a weekend with your bud.

I wore blue jeans, SE sneakers, and a hooded sweatshirt, same thing I wore cutting firewood and hauling fish aboard, to make meat. The venison never noticed that I wasn't wearing makeup.
I know someone who grew up hunting in Idaho. He wore a cowbell and walked right up to 'em. No camo. No paint. Just go get the job done.
Well lets consider someone carried a camera. From the apparent era this is quite a gadget indeed. Also horseback hunting is a game of gadgets. To us it is old school, to them it would be high tech. Many folks hunted with much less. It is interesting how few wore sidearms.
The most new gadget might be all the expensive lever actions, once considered a joke from an old timer's Springfield or front stuffer's old school opinion.
