The best bear gun I ever had was a .25 ACP Baby Browning. My friend Paul kept telling me OVER and OVER that it was a horrible choice for defending myself from grizzly bears. Until one fateful day, I proved him wrong. We were out camping in Montana when a Grizzly came around the corner of a gully. Paul panicked! But I took out my baby browning as the Grizzly charged. So I took careful, CAREFUL aim... And shot Paul in the knee. Then I ran. Man, I sure miss Paul.

The kit included a big can of bear pepper spray and a whistle, which is funny in itself, since people in Alaska say the way to identify bear poop is to look for the whistle.

@pixiniarts Год назад

Always loved this bear joke: Be alert for bears and take extra precautions to avoid an encounter. We advise hikers to wear little bells on their clothes so they make noise when hiking. The bell noise allows bears to hear them coming from a distance and not be startled. Visitors should also carry a pepper spray just in case a bear is encountered. Keep an eye out for fresh bear scat so you have an idea what bears are in the area. You can recognize the difference between black bear and grizzly bear scat. Black bear droppings are smaller and often contain berries and leaves. Grizzly bear droppings tend to contain small bells and smell of pepper...

@kaminelson1277 Год назад

The problem with bear bells is that they're high pitched which makes the noise sound kinda like a tiny animal. The best way to alert a bear of your presence is clapping since it sounds like something breaking branches to them and makes them think that you're much bigger than them.

@JohnB-dr8sk 9 месяцев назад

Bear bells work in areas where bears aren't used to hearing them. But in areas where they hear them a lot they often ignore them.

@joshuaspath6923 Месяц назад

@@JohnB-dr8sk it’s not so much they ignore them. It makes them apparent your there. Most bear attacks are when a bear is startled and doesn’t realize you were there until your within yards of it.

@keng1043 5 месяцев назад

I find it so ironic that the bear is minding his own business in his own environment when we come along intruding, the bear is afraid, tries to protect himself, and we shoot him in self defense? I understand not wanting to get killed by a bear but isn't that a risk one takes when going where bears are present? There are also a lot less lethal ways to get a bear to back off. Bears are social creatures, have a family, and are often simply protecting their family from a perceived threat. What happens to the rest of their family if they get killed for simply being in their environment at the wrong time? I used to dive and was around sharks all the time. When they came too close they got punched in the nose however they had no interest in me 95% of the time. I would think most bears just want to be left the hell alone and don't care for humans intruding into their environment. Agree with C.H.U.D. below.

Living in Alaska, bears are a concern. Most people carry 10mm, 44 mag, 454 casull, and I've heard some 480 ruger and 500 s&w. I carry a 1911 converted to 460 Rowland or a 357 with +p hard cast. Fun fact, the most common caliber for successful bear defense in Alaska is 9mm.

@justindearmond1 Год назад

i was wondering about that myself....would a 9mm be better due to the high capacity mags available and much less recoil than some of the larger calibers as well as it being a semi auto weapon? im from Kansas and the only time ive ever been in bear country i took two pistols, my glock 19 and a snub nose .38 special. Taking as few chances as possible especially with my kids around. A youtube channel called Scary Bear Attacks recounts many stories where people are just simply unarmed or underarmed in bear country. Personally if i lived in say Alaska id never leave the house without an auto loading larger caliber rifle as well as a pistol on my hip and a very large knife or two.

@msihcs8171 Год назад

I lived 20 years in Alaska. 12 gauge was my bear medicine of preference. I know guys who carry some truly large cartridge handguns, like the .454 and .500 S&W. The most important thing is shot placement and contollability. If you are going to miss with all 5 or 6 shots, the biggest round is not going to help you. If I had to pick, if I was forced to, I would pick the 10mm or .44 magnum. Those are two I have shot and handled comfortably.

@MoneyIsSilver 11 месяцев назад

I think I would take both the 12 gauge and a handgun into bear country. If the bear closes the distance and is on top of you, pointing a shotgun is out of the question.

The dirty truth of the 10mm is, most 'off the shelf' factory ammo is loaded to 40cal specs. To get true 10mm performance, you have to either hand load your own, or purchase from the premium vendors, like Underwood, CorBon, Buffalo bore, and a few others.

@dieudonnesaive6603 Год назад

As an Alaskan with experience getting attacked by a grizzly, I am on the 10mm train (from an M&P or Glock preferably). By the time you get 2 or 3 shots of .357 or .44 magnum off, you could have dumped about 6 or so rounds of 10mm from a semi auto handgun. Maybe you can hit it the first time with one big round, but more than likely the stars will not align well enough for you to get good aim. All that said, against black bears, bear spray works great.

@KSOYflight 3 месяца назад

I noticed an anomaly there as well. In playing it over and over I do not believe that a complete cycle of the trigger occurred. I say that as I cannot for the life of me see rotation on the cylinder. Yes, there is trigger movement, yes, the hammer lifts. But without cylinder movement I would have to say that the trigger did not get an opportunity to fully travel forward to reset position. There are many instances however in real world of heavy recoiling handguns getting an unanticipated double tap. The scary part is the second round usually fires when the barrel is pointed no where near the intended target. Kudos to Scott for only sliding one round in during testing.

My bear gun is a Gen 4 Glock 20 with a KKM precision barrel + compensator loaded with Buffalo Bore 190 grain mono-metal "Dangerous Game" flatnose penetrator rounds. As impressive as those revolvers are, I'd rather have the 15 + 1 of 10mm ammo, especially considering that my wife and my daughter can fire the 10mm quickly and accurately. Unless you're a beast of a man, like Scott, I don't see many people getting a follow-up shot with those revolvers if they miss.

I've been researching bear guns for a little while now, since I'll be moving to Alaska next year, and I heard a lot of people recommending 10mm, and I thought it would be too small of a round.

You never want to use any handgun for bear protection BUT if you have to then 10mm with underwood 220g coated hard cast or similar hard cast/mono round that has a full load is a must.

So of all these short barrelled guns, I'd say that the 10mm performed the best overall. Has the highest capacity in case you miss your first shot, has the least recoil again if you miss your first shot, and penetrated all the way through and got sucked back due to the elasticity of the gel. Against a bear's noggin, I'd say it's sufficient.

@actschp1 Год назад

You nailed it. 10mm all day long. Truthfully, any handgun will probably require multiple shots on a bear to take it down. They can take some real damage before you slow them down. Then factoring in fear response, time to regroup, and getting on target, I'd take the G29 all day long. With it there's so much you don't have to think about in a high stress situation. Plus, if you have to fire more than once, getting back on target with the Glock would be a piece of cake compare to those other guns.

@@fabienb1892 Can't speak to the snubnose, but I daily carried one of the standard 7" for 3 years. A case full of TrailBoss powder is quite fine to shoot, 340 gr at 1400 fps, and feels about like a .44mag snubnose to shoot. The limiting factor is not the powder burning (though it always wastes a fair bit, being a revolver), nor the recoil. The limiting factor in the loads you can shoot is the rifling twisting the gun _sideways_ out of your hand. It gets quite uncomfortable to hold on to when you get up into the 1900+fps range. Also, the accuracy starts to drop off as the muzzle jump (the amount the muzzle rises _before_ the bullet leaves the end of the barrel) is substantial and difficult to control. Never used modern pistol powder, H335 is plenty to make a loud bang and reach 1900fps.

Sectional density and caliber of the gun (caliber as in length of barrel to diameter) are part of it. The shorter barrel is a bigger handicap for the larger calibers.
