[QUOTE="cross, post: 993112, member: 8592"] Agreed. I witnessed a man dispatching a small black bear with a 9mm and determined that pistols are miserable defense against bears, especially big ones. However, when you're backpacking or bow hunting, they're vastly superior to bows and backpacks. Bear spray is probably better in most situations. However, as previously suggested, a revolver being limited to 6 rounds doesn't leave much for misses. The Glock 20 holds 15 in the magazine and provides a lot of opportunity to miss most of the time and still connect with a revolver full of ammo. [/QUOTE]
