This is my new best friend when I go hunting. For emergencies only.
what are those animals you are talking about I've never heard of them but they sure sound ferocious and scary.Oh for sure, never know when I'm gonna need a quick shot from a .500 S&W Magnum to put down a charging/wounded ground squirrel or prairie dog.
You haven't lived til you've got a full grown prairie dog charging straight at you with mal intent and blood rage in his beady little eyes. I'd sure never dare step foot in the wilds of a prairie dog town without my trusty sidearm.
Can't even count how many times I've emptied my Model 500 into such a life threatening wounded animal, only to have him roll to a stop at my feet. Seen my life flash before my eyes every time.
all good and games until franks blood raging prairie dog shows up then what you going to doIf I have to carry side arm in my little suburbia backyard then I would move first.![]()
Pow pow!all good and games until franks blood raging prairie dog shows up then what you going to do
And though this is not a firearm forum and I don’t care to see or discuss them, that’s a neat gun. Convertables can be fun and accurate if you keep the loads safe.
I have been considering for exactly the same reason a byrna le.. I used to work in transport company carrying bank bags and medicine for clinic and I had to carry and thankfully I never had to use it, once I was fortunate to have a patrol car around the corner when I was in danger.. not only legal consequences but I, well I don't like to hurt anything.. guess if I had the same job now I'd have to have one of each..I've always carried a sidearm Within quick Reach wherever possible in oh 40 or so years, I've had to pull it 3 times and thankfully all ive ever actually shot was a charging wild boar .. but glad i had it ..with the world these days you never know when some crazy, road raging is gonna follow you home or something and corner you .. actually ive been keeping a can of bear spray handy lately also, and trying to get used to the idea .. the thought of legal proceedimgs even if justified for popping someone is almost as scary as them being a threat lol .. i figure a good dowsing with bear spray could end some confrontations non lethally anyhow ..
oh I once stopped at a neighbor yard seeing that my other neighbor who raised Russian wild boar, his animals got out.. and they were tearing up the whole yard.. I didn't have anythingI've always carried a sidearm Within quick Reach wherever possible in oh 40 or so years, I've had to pull it 3 times and thankfully all ive ever actually shot was a charging wild boar .. but glad i had it ..with the world these days you never know when some crazy, road raging is gonna follow you home or something and corner you .. actually ive been keeping a can of bear spray handy lately also, and trying to get used to the idea .. the thought of legal proceedimgs even if justified for popping someone is almost as scary as them being a threat lol .. i figure a good dowsing with bear spray could end some confrontations non lethally anyhow ..
When hunting dangerous game, its always comforting knowing you are the fastest one in the camp.Could always have someone tag along thats slower than you. Wife came to mind...
