A short length of railway iron makes a great little anvil.
You can even fashion a horn on one end

Problem was no rifle, it was a National Park in NSW.
Bloody heaps of pig sign to. Just unbelievable.
National Parks are a disgrace in this country, if it isn't ferals taking over its weeds.
Met a couple of parks guys trying to trap pigs. Also very disenchanted. Not allowed to shoot the ferals that were at that time looking at us about 60 yards away.

The big problem with "old" railway iron is that the working surface is generally crystallized (metalurgically speaking) and
would have a chance of the end fracturing and dropping off.
Then your 14" would suddenly become only 3" (But with old age you'd probly forget that it used to be bigger)
