Bear protection?

[03Lightningrocks]

What’s a good 44? I’m really intrigued now. Y’all are not helping my pocket book

The one with the barrel and trigger.

Seriously though. Many makes of good 44 magnum out there. Let your wallet decide.

The best way to protect bears is for humans to respect them as wild animals and not feed them, not take selfies with them, not try to pet them, and not do any other damnfool thing you see too often at national parks.



Best for the bears. Best for the humans.

Maybe not best for gun salesmen.

Thinkin about just carrying my 357mag in bear country

Seriously 9mm?

Yes seriously. I am not gonna go buy a 44 mag just to carry for two hours about two - three times a year. Although that does give me a good justification hmmmmm

Buy the 44 mag. Give the wife the 9mm so you have both a backup and she can defend herself if need be.

You can now justify the purchase. “See honey, I bought this gun so now we both can be safer”

Please, all you need is a .22 to get away from a bear! All you have to do is shoot your friend in the foot to slow him down enough so that your faster!

There have been plenty of incidents where people were attacked and were not doing any of the above things you mentioned, not everyone provokes them. A friend used to be a surveyor and his job required him to be in the woods in bear country. There was nothing he could do (well if he wanted to keep his job) to stay away from them.
