I’ve never fired one of those, but I saw a YouTube video of an idiot almost getting a split forehead. Was he just being an idiot and limpwristing it?
I have pretty strong hands and wrists but wanted to know about the recoil...guess the only way is to rent one!

I got a .500 smith and wesson magnum that would drop any animal on earth.
Actually a charging bull elephant would probably not be stopped. I doubt the muzzle velocity from that short barrel is enough to punch through that skull. Even 45-70 was not considered enough for those back in the safari days.

I am much more concerned with bipeds than I ever will be with bears.

I taught one of my goats to shake hands like you do a dog, but that woman is a genius...

Pit bulls don’t get over about 70 pounds.
However it is neat to call every scary dog a pit bull.
Your 100lb. german shepard might actually be a poodle.

Years back when I worked at an innercity hospital my husband bought me a small can of mace that went on your key chain....the directions were to periodically test it to make sure it was still working....I wish you would have told me about wind direction....I maced myself twice, damn wind blowing in the wrong direction...it smarts the eyes real good...back then you could carry real mace..
To: Elsie
Elsie, that sweet animal will not hurt you, see that idiot researcher was right....:O)
To: Eaker
There is a breeder of pits that has a web site (which I have long ago lost) and brags about his 130 to 150 pure bred pit bulls...with pictures. Been breeding large to large.
To: goat granny
Because it lost to the bear, silly! LOL.

Apparently, I mis-spoke in my last post. I do not recommend using illegal aliens as bear bait. This would be a clear-cut violation of Fish and Game Laws.
