What is the correct method for securing a powder horn. The buckskinning series frequently shows short straps attaching the horn to the shooting bag's strap. Other sources and pictures support this. It seems that pre-revolutionary war the two were hung on seperate straps but then it was common practice after to have the two together. However it seems that with L&C and later, including the work of A.J. Miller describe the two hanging again on seperate straps. What is correct for someone in the PNW during the 1820's & 30's? Comments. Suggestions.
