This is the finest in FJ protection.

I came across a bear in the woods a couple weekends ago but he ran away so fast.

Still, I was happy I was armed.

Up here in Oregon we have a big Cat problem. Too many cats and not enough food.

I think that little Taurus will take care of any cat, if you can hear it coming.
That is pretty cool. I have heard of those before but never seen a video on one or shot one. Cool gun!

Re: Weapon for Air2air poll

HHmmm on a trail and without going into a scenario that would likely only happen in a B rate movie, I can't think of to many that anyone with a decent amount of reason wouldn't understand. With a million scenarios logged in your memory, Life will find a way to throw you an unexpected curve. Can't plan for everything, but you as a person are the best judge for what you should do in any given situation, the reason? because (heaven forbid) if you had to explain yourself to a jury, judge, Officer, and sometimes your own concience YOU will know that you were justified in your actions as YOU percieved the threat. The Officer was right about the hair on the back of your neck thing, whatever your little radar is, it more than likely won't let you down.

As for most scenarios go these are good notes; have a weapon your are familiar, and comfortable with. Keep it accesible but but hidden. The only reason to touch it is to draw it and use it.

2 big things that always go wrong? the person not using/knowing/misusing features of a different firearm When they needed it. And Brandishing one as a negotiation tool or just not intending on using it.
