Default RE: question: snake shot in a handgun

ORIGINAL: firstshot


Where is "lehigh valley"? Just wondering where you live that you feel the need to carry bear protection.


firstshot
----------------------------
Make your first shot count!
northeast PA. foothills to the mountains. we're basically being over run by an exploding blackbear population that seems to be getting more and more aggressive. several fishermen mauled last summer. we've run into several, but fortunately, the bear always thought better of it. on top of that, my 12 year old accidently kicking up a 6 1/2 foot rattler during muzzleloader season was the last straw. i winged it with a 50 cal flint, but would rather have more "options" next time.

thanks for everyone's input.
