[QUOTE="Takem406, post: 1088547, member: 72588"] Thinking it's time for a side arm for grizzlies while elk hunting. I'm a Glock fan boy, not going to lie. I use for my my carry gun daily, my night stand gun and the wife's gun. With the new 40 MOS model in 10mm, would that be a viable option with HOT cast loads? I don't like the idea of hiking around with a huge revolver with a ton of recoil. I've shot 44s and a 460, and I can handle it. However I've put thousands of rounds through a Glock and feel more comfortable with it. That would probably allow for more than one shot before I get mauled. LOL I'm seeing more articles from respected writers on the subject saying it's a good choice. For scouting this summer I'd probably get a 450 Marlin in a Browning BLR, but that's not an option for hunting. Also I'd like to shoot a cat this winter with a pistol. Mace is good, I know the studies, but I haven't bought a gun in a few weeks lol! I guess it's really all speculation, really even a 44 is under powered for a piffed off bear. Thanks boys [/QUOTE]
