Been doing some reading on Lewis and Clark. One courious item mentioned is an espontoon -- Seems Lewis never left home without his.
Undaunted Courage by Ambrose: "...the espontoon had a crosswise attachment at shoulder height that served as a rifle rest."
I've found some reference materials and photos, but no mention of a rifle rest. Anyone out there carry one? Any research? Know of where I can purchase the blade?
