I like my life. I would much rather shoot someone and go home than blow both of us up. My wife(to be) would be kinda pissed I think...
Anyone carry a gun while trail building alone?

Interesting that you said "shoot someone"...when this thread originally was about "protecting" yourself against bears and cats.....
lulznvm
Your dreaming! handguns are a 25 foot kill zone if your well trained. a cat is 6-8 feet full grown. want to take a guess at at how fast it could cover 25 feet? you have tools, and your making a **** of noise, it's going to look for a rabbit.
I echo the King - go for a 9mm. They're great to shoot and have plenty of stopping power + cheap amo.
I like a gun I don't have to clean too much - an especially good idea if you are out in the rain. Go for a Glock.

Because we can.....Thank God for the Constitution.
Why do you think that bigger = Less accurate? I think that "size" has little to do with it (That's what SHE said).
I'm much more accurate with my 44mag than my 357/38... and I wouldn't say that on the same one that the 38 rounds are more accurate than the 357's either.
Weight, balance, barrel length... THOSE are factors.
Tontinos Pizza Rolls. Throw them on the ground behind you. When the Cougar snatches them up and burns the roof of it's mouth it will probably run away to get some Chocolate Milk. However far the Chocolate Milk is, is the amount of time you have to get out of the woods. Whatever you do. Do not bring chocolate milk into the woods!
I carry a nine with me. Just for the simple reason of protection against the unkown. Oh and im a liberal. Haaaaa

Bingo.
Funny how that works huh?? I shot only revolvers for years when it came to handguns. Finally decided to try an auto loader last year. Boy what a night and day difference shooting those things. My favorite revolver is my S&W 629 .44 mag with an 8 3/8 inch barrel and even after a year of shooting my auto loader on a regular basis I am still way more accurate with my .44 revolver.
As far as carrying a gun while cycling, if you want to go ahead, it's your right to do so.
I live in NW Montana, I hunt, hike, camp, backpack, cycle etc. etc. and the only time I feel the need to carry a gun is when I'm hunting. The rest of the time I carry a simple 40 dollar can of Counter Assault bear spray.
It's lighter, cheaper, doesn't have to be "aimed" as carefully, and doesn't draw any attention to me. It's gonna work on a bear, cat, human etc and if you look at the statistics spray is more effective anyway.

No, I wouldn't think of it as such things aren't permissable in the People's Republic of Maryland.
Wow I'll take our snakes and spiders over Cougars and Coyotes, I'd hate to see you guys as surfers, I've got a pistol in my wettie just in case a shark sneaks up on me.
I must admit, if I lived in the states I'd carry a gun, you people scare me.

your dreaming....care to take a 50 yard bet?
I do when hunting seaon is in just cause where we ride is game land. If a pissed off hunter comes out of the woods I want to have a gun too. Plus the dogs they use to hunt bear with aren't the nicest dogs around. A friend of mine was rideing in pisgah national forest and a guy came out of the woods with his dogs after bear hunting one of the dog went to attack him. My buddy pulled his gun the same time the dog jumped at him, he stop the dog with one had but at the same time he went to shoot the dog so he ended up shooting and kill the dog through his on hand. So he shot his self in the hand to get to the dog. After he did that he shot the other 2 dog cause the hunter let them lose on he and his wife. At the hospital the cops came and taking to him come to find out that the guy that had the dogs was alittle off and they had have had problems with him before.
