I’m going mule deer hunting in bear country today.

Everyone carries a sidearm. There are bear, cougar, wolves, coyote, wild dogs and crazy people.

My 9mm is loaded with the first 6 rounds of Buffalo Bore Hardcast, which has been known to drill a hole from stem to stern of black bear. Not enough for grizzly, but I need the 16+1, 16, and 13 plus my rifle to take care of a wolf pack.

Guy from a gun show made a nice fold over holster. I saw bear sign and a killing field on top of the mountain so i carried that while turkey hunting..

Police found the 60-year-old man’s body several hundred yards from his campsite near Mt. Judea, Ark...

Apparently he wasn't carrying properly.
