If you could only carry one handgun while camping...

[malern28us]

Desert Eagle 50 AE

 

[Steve]

S&W 629 6" loaded to the MAX!

 

[KPierce]

Out of what I have right now, I would choose my ported 6" Taurus 608. Completely accurate and easy to shoot with full powered loads.

 

[Atkinsons]

Well since all I have is a glock 17 and a HK P7 M8, I would be comfortable with either one. I believe that a well place shot from either one would detour anything coming my way. Both are very accurate and reliable.

 

[piper]

possibly a revolver in 454 casull but then again Im not a revolver fan so probably a G21 with some hornday hollow points

 

[jeremy]

All I can carry is a 1 Handgun...

Hmmmm...
Let me ponder the options for a second....

Yup, I know which one I would choose...
I want the Samaritan...

 

[The Bubba Effect]

Out of what I have, I would pick my xdm in .45 acp.

I do not think there is a good handgun for dealing with bears, but I got the xdm with the idea that it would be a good thing to take along next time I was in bear country.

I think a good handgun for dealing with bears would ba Semi Auto 12 gauge Pistol...

3" or 3 1/2" Magnum.

My 3 1/2" Mag knocks the PI$$ out of me. Can not imagine a pistol version but I want one.......................

I am thinking 3 1/2, cause I can run anything I need to through it...

 

[Trading_Fool]

Of what I own, I would have to go with the Keltec PU16. 30rnds of 223. I think it would stop a bear.

 

[Hohn]

Glock 20 loaded with Buffalo Bore 200gr hardcast.

after he made you his lunch

 

[hacksawfg]

Sold the gun I would have taken camping, S&W 686, ported barrel. Even with hot magnum rounds not much muzzle flip, so quick follow ups (assuming typical wolf pack size of 6-8 wolves). Should be enough to stop a puma (assuming you even know he's there before he's on you ), could still take out a bear too if necessary. It wouldn't be my first choice for bear country, but since we're looking at a general purpose gun...

 

[GlockWielder]

If I was camping I'd want a Glock in a Safariland ALS holster with extra mags. Probably a full size G20 in 10mm
