The name Gargas and Garg sound familiar but are not the same. Garg are purely vaishya and have no connection to Rishi Gargas.All the descendants of Bharadwaj Gotra display warrior skills because sage Bharadwaj married a Kshatriya woman called Suseela.According to Anuloma marriage, the offsprings who are born to a Brahmin father and a kshatriya woman take the characteristics of Kshatriya though technically being a Brahmin.Hence the Brahmin descandants of Bharadwaj Gotra are referred to as Brahma-Kshatriyas(Warrior Brahmins).
