Quote HistoryQuoted: Not a very good observation. I'm not going to carry a 45-70 on a casual hike. Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: Just an observation. If you wouldn't hunt any of those animals with a 10mm, why would you carry a 10mm? Not a very good observation. I'm not going to carry a 45-70 on a casual hike. The 10mm on my hip beats the .300 win mag in my rifle rack every day and twice on Sunays |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Which one is better if encountering a sasquatch? Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: I consider a G20 a minimum caliber for a woods gun in remote areas. My go to is a Ruger Alaskan and after carrying that you will appreciate the Glock. Which one is better if encountering a sasquatch? Something, something, in the 40 watt range |

The climbing guidebooks for southeast Utah flatly stated that you shouldn't wear headphones while hiking there. That was some spot-on advice.

Quote HistoryQuoted: You will see exactly zero of those listed in Utah. Cougars will see you though. LOL, you can drive up to the Brighton Resort, walk the trail around Silver Lake and see moose browsing in the wetlands.  Attached File |

Not compared to the cast on my wrist after I fire it. Assuming the bear doesn't eat me because I missed. |

Moose and grizzlies require something larger than 9mm or .40 S&W to reliably defend yourself from. Anything else, a 9mm is enough to reliably kill. There was a cop in Zanesville OH who took out a wolf and a black bear with a .40 S&W.

So I met up with a relative who's lived in Utah for a decade. He works to be able to mountain bike, ski, raft and camp. He doesn't own a gun as far as I know and it sounds like no one on the trips he goes on carries. He said he's only run across one mountain lion. He said at first he thought it was a deer drinking until it turned around, but it ran off when it saw a bunch of dudes. He said the bears he has seen were in desert areas (probably the only ones he's seen). I said "moose sound like assholes" and he laughed and said they kind of are.

A few years ago we almost hit a cow moose that was standing in the middle of the Provo River while tubing down it. We went around both sides of it. Pretty crazy.

What creature will most likely kill you for not having a 10mm Glock If you're in New Mexico, the obvious answer is "drunk driver." |

Horses is the right answer. Horses are murderous assholes. I like them.....but I trust them about as much as I'd trust a fat chick to hold my ice cream cone.

  I mean, I guess a glock 10 mm's ammo prices to stay decently capable might make you too poor for twinkies and big macs.
