All the wardens, cops, ect carry 12g slugs as bear protection. At attack ranges a slug is a lot of
power. I don't know want kind of slugs they use. Blacks are killed with slugs all the time. Big bears
would be harder to stop with Foster slugs. I have never got to hunt big bears but I think back ups
for bear attacks are a lot like the ever popular snake gun. I have shot a good many Copper Heads,
Rattlers and a few Cotton mouth. Never shot one out of being attacked. It's the one you don't see
that will lay teeth to you. I wonder how many bear attacks have successfully ended with a pistol?
I know it happens, if I was hunting around bear territory I would be carrying a rifle big enough to
definitely get the job done. This is a potential life or death situation I would carry guns that I had
complete confidence in their function. There is also two kinds of attacks. One where you are aware
of the bear and are ready for it if it decides to attack. The second is one charging from fairly close
that you didn't see. Like the snake this type of attack is hard to stop with anything.

Don't know what kind of slugs they currently carry but according to the brother of a friend of mine that lives outside of Anchorage, the wardens up in Alaska were using Brenneke's about five years ago. Maybe they still are.

And I agree ...if I'm going into black bear country, I'll be packing a sidearm in 44, 45lc or 41mag. The later two cals. loaded with loads in the hotter end of the spectrum with hard cast projectiles.
Going into brown bear country it would be from the 454casull on up to the 500.
Whatever the heaviest was I was the most efficient with.
Here's a really good article about sidearm carry in both black and brown bear country.

http://www.outdoorhub.com/news/2017/02/23/thats-happens-bring-gun-snake-fight/ Saw this just now on another forum and immediately thought of our friend EZ. This 10 second video shows a wild animal charging a Glock owner..... I guess it is a good thing they hold all that ammo if that’s how Glock guys shoot. Luckily he made it back to his car and no animals were harmed in the making of this video. Luckily for mr. snake he ran into a Glock owner.
