[QUOTE="Pro2A, post: 3099996, member: 17889"] I prefer the Glock G40 10mm with DeltaPointPro or green laser, Buffalo hard cast rounds, in chest holster. Green laser is most visible to human eye, better than red in sun. Laser puts impact point on the target, where if attacked is where instinctively your eyes will focus rather than on sights/lens. But, do not discount a high quality bear spray. These two options are complementary, not mutually exclusive. Spray is 98%+ effective in deterring an attack, educates the bear that that 2-legged tidbit is over seasoned, not to be messed with. Guns are around 60% effective in stopping attack without person injury. gun use means the bear HAS to be killed, wounded bear is most dangerous. Myths that spray won't stop angry, charging bear are myths, if properly utilized. Solid dose overrides attitude, induces involuntary spasms, pain, incapacitates, . Don't be dissuaded by wind stories. Learn how the wind affects spray application, just as wind separates the shooters from the trigger tuggers. Watch expiration date, change out early, use expired sprays to practice, practice, practice employing, same as practicing, practicing, practicing engaging gun.
