A 7.62 handgun? I didnt know there was a such. What is the other number that goes with the 7.62? I KNOW it couldnt be 64, like my old Reussian military rifle. It would tear your hand off!!

“A 7.62 handgun? I didnt know there was a such.”
Most likely a 7.62 X 25 Tokarev. It’s a bottle nosed pistol cartridge issued by the Soviet military during WWII. It’s a relatively light bullet but it moves very fast and penetrates very deep. How well it would work against a hungry polar bear, I don’t know.
The rifle could be chambered in either 7.62x39 or 7.62x51.

This is the 7.62 handgun I’d want for a polar bear.
