  I legitimately didn’t know Ron knew pistols existed??? First time I’ve seen a video on a “short gun”!!!

  The reason the soldier dropped to one knee, is because if you're standing and have to shoot at a bear running toward you, if you shoot at the head your bullet may hit the bear in the rear end because it's moving so fast. If you drop to one knee the bullet is traveling the length of the bear. That's why he got one center to chest and one in the head!

  I taught school in a Native village on the Yukon and carried a .41 magnum with 220 hard cast Buffaloes Bore. Back then everyone had either a .44 mag. or .41 magnum. The people carrying the .44 mag. said they just bought the biggest they could. The .41 magnum people explained that the.41 traveled further in the bear and the lesser recoil allowed for a follow up shot with more precision in aiming!

  I heard that Alaskans call Bicycle tourists along the Alaskan Highway - Meals on Wheels.

  When I hunted with Phil in 1995, my guide made me stand guard, constantly rotating 360 degrees, with &nbsp;my .338 while Phil’s guide skinned my bear. <br>FYI, squared 9’10”<br>Great outfitter!<br>Saw 30 moose, and 27 bears in 1 day. It was the most intense hunt I’ve ever been on. <br>It’s a great story, I in my life

  Timely video, Ron. A man was just killed in a bear attack this morning a couple miles down the road from me in Arizona. Completely unprovoked, a male black bear attacked him while he was sitting in a chair and enjoying his coffee.

  I carried a 4” S&amp;W 29 for years in Wyoming during bow season and when fishing in the back country. It is heavy, but I practiced a lot with it and had complete confidence in it. Saved my partners life once with that gun.

  I remember my dad taking me to Alaska when I was 16. We fished, seen the beautiful scenery. We had a guide, old man, he had been doing guide work since he was 18 if I remember correctly. He carried a .357 magnum for the bears. I remember him and my dad talking about it. He said, and I remember this very clearly, &nbsp;&quot; If you can&apos;t back out, and the bear starts to get ornery, take one of his lungs out. They ain&apos;t looking for a fight when they lose half their air.&quot;. Always will remember that.

  Tragic story in Wyoming. &nbsp; I had camped about 10 miles West of where that happened just a month before. &nbsp;Really hit home. &nbsp;I pray for that man&apos;s family.

  Anyone that references Outlaw Josey Wales is definitely at the top of my A list. Looking forward to hearing more from this young man.
