Note to self: You might as well be unarmed as carry a .38 in grizzly country.
In bear country I think I could justify having that Desert Eagle .50 cal I want. ;o
the .38 is for your self when you can smell the bear's breath on your neck.
As the old joke goes, make sure to file off the front sight if you do, so it don't hurt so much when the bear shoves it up your @$$.

....no kidding....I wouldn't feel all that comfy with even a .454 Casull....God, if I can't have a at least a .350 Magnum.....or if I'm packing it....a 45-70 Gov't... then forget it....I ain't going.....
