Oh, that’s not real luck, real “LUCK” is the old Eskimo woman who dropped a Griz in her yard with one shot from a .22 bolt action rifle!
She hit it through soft palate and into the brain when it roared at her, from about fifty feet.
Ex Alaska native who told me the story related that the old gal refused to believe she needs a bigger gun.
I also recall a report of some kids in Oregon?
They managed to kill a black bear with a 9mm after dropping the shotgun in the river.
They could well be anti-2nd Amendment City Kids. A brush with Reality might give some of them second thoughts about their assumptions.
Precisely
My sister’s stepson was a guide in the wilds of Alaska. A man asked him “what should I do if I see a bear?”. Steve answered “whatever you do don’t run in my direction!”
