When I see cops and the military give up guns for bear spray, I’ll think about it.

I once shot a can of bear spray in my pajamas...

You can tell Grizzly scat from regular bear scat by the small bells in it, and the odor of pepper spray.

Every few months there’s a bear spray vs. guns thread on FR.

The answer is 10mm

Grizz have charged right through spray and still killed. I use firearms.

Bear spray is good when you just can’t decide if you need to shoot someone.

What the spray was doing in my pajama I will never know.

[Blueflag]

Use flammable bear spray? Flammable wasp spray??

[Bratch]

It never gets old.

Sounds like "spray and pray."

Why not have bear spray that you can mount on a rifle and deploy with a trigger pull? That way if the bear spray doesn't work you can fall back to shooting ... or vice versa.

I’d like to see used in Portland. By the cops, I mean.

.454 Casull in a lever action carbine. Hard cast bullets.

That’s my take from reading 2 decades of bear threads here.

...bear spray is more effective than firearms, based on research done by Fish and Game Department.

And they're wrong.
