[QUOTE="blackdog, post: 870917, member: 30105"] I don't disagree with you at all on the rifle vs bear spray question necessarily, but as you said, out on the tundra where the wind tends to blow, the spray may not always be the perfect option either. But then again, I don't know if there is such a thing as the perfect protection from a charging grizzly or brown bear. Perhaps a shotgun with slugs would be a little easier to handle than a rifle at the range a full charge would require. Though I was told by an oldtimer one time that if you're going to carry a pistol in bear country to make sure you file off the front sights until the barrel is nice and smooth. That way when the bear takes it from you and shoves it up your *** it won't hurt so much! ;) [/QUOTE]
