[QUOTE="Outlaw6.0, post: 2561834, member: 23486"] I've owned the DE in .50AE. That hog weighs more than some rifles :D I cannot recommend a DE for defense. If you limp wrist one (think one handed draw while fending off a bear), it won't cycle. And the recoil just might toss it out of your hand. I've watched stout men nearly smack themselves in the forehead. You would have to practice, a LOT. I'd personally vote wheel gun with hard cast bullets. .41mag, .44mag. Something with a lot of punch but still manageable enough to handle in a high threat situation. I still own a .500S&W... I wouldn't recommend it either. t [/QUOTE]
