Time for a Little Bit of Humor..... BEAR PROTECTION

This is why it is so important to defeat all gun registration . . . 

On Bud's Gun Shop Forum the question came up: What is

the smallest caliber you trust to protect yourself from a bear?

A great answer:

My personal favorite defense gun has always been a Beretta

Jetfire in .22 short.  Over all the years I've been hiking I never

leave without it in my pocket.  Of course we all know too the

first rule when hiking in the wilderness is to use the "Buddy

System."  For those of you who may be unfamiliar with this it

means you never hike alone.  You bring a friend or companion,

even an in-law, that way if something happens there is

someone to help.

I remember one time hiking with my brother-in-law in northern

Alberta.  Out of nowhere came this huge brown bear and man

was she mad.  We must have been near one of her cubs. 

Anyway, if I had not had my little Jetfire I'd sure not be here

today.  Just one shot to my brother-in-law's knee cap and I

was able to escape by just walking at a brisk pace.
