    Goat down

    Nope it’s a handgun…. I see no need for tongue and cheek or negative anything in someone’s animal thread…..but there always seems to be a token 1 in every thread here. Have a good one

    Goat down

    It’s ok to be upset my wife smoked a good goat with something you don’t understand. There always has to be one person to be upset in every thread here.

    Pistols versus Big Bears

    I’d reckon it would be like any defensive situation and be an ooo 💩. All of the tools require practice….and all the tools can be attacked in some way. All of them have pluses and minuses. If I was packing a rifle I’d think that with a contact shot would be about as effective as a firearm...

    Pistols versus Big Bears

    Are you making it up as you go? It’s not fantasy. I gave you a couple guys that are easy to search and you kind find many articles on their exploits at stopping much bigger critters than a bear with brain stem shots. A brain stem shot is the only way to guarantee a instant stop on a...

    Pistols versus Big Bears

    Ding ding! All of the rifle shots quoted in the original post were not “good” shots. The only shot that stops a charge guaranteed is a brain stem shot. A little 3-4” triangle target……doesn’t matter how much “energy” (which is a horrible number to base lethality on) was dumped into an animal...

    Pistols versus Big Bears

    You can’t factory handgun vs rifle vs bear spray without taking into account the skill of the person. There are plenty of writings from the past with witnesses of handgun hunters shooting charging animals. Most were in Africa….but they still require a well placed brain stem shot. You can just...

    Start a business to hunt more?

    Owned my own shop for 11 years now…..I structure my work and turn around times in a way to give me 1 1/2 months off during hunting season…..I don’t think you could go to that extreme doing service work tho. But you can defiantly set your work days. You will have a different boss with each...

    Diamond Leather holsters.

    I have my leather custom made. For my bear defense gun I have one that drops bellow the belt about 2.5” and let’s the pack do it’s thing. Nixon leather in NE does my work. Also attached a bandolier pic. He made this for a client of mine. That would also be out of the way.

    Pistol carbines for hunting?

    Sure it will work. With the velocity increase over the pistols just look at the heavier bullets for the caliber. That should keep you from being over speed for the projectile.

    Help with front sight dovetail mount

    Well it appears your base is also removable. I’d buy a new base of the same height. Brownells sells those too.
