[QUOTE="Hubby45, post: 1671559, member: 99807"] I definitely carry a big bore revolver on me (note: on me , not in a pack or out of immediate reach) as a second gun when in the mountains. I live/hunt in bear and cougar country. I bought a Ruger Alaskan in 454 Casull, which can shoot any of the 45 colt rounds, and carry it in the Kenai chest rig quite comfortably. I have a 7 1/2 barreled Redhawk 44 mag (fits in the same chest rig) I carry sometimes, as well as a cupla single action Ruger 45 Colts that I sometimes carry. They make great camp guns as well. I’ve had a close encounter with both a bear and a cougar over the years, and I like the idea of having a secondary gun “just in case”. The old saying “One is none and two is one” holds true. Just like having two lights and two knives along. Be prepared. I’m lucky enough to get to practice with handguns on a regular basis and feel confident in using them. Take good care. [/QUOTE]
