I guess a .9mm in grizzly country is better than nothing but Mr. GG2 carried a .454 Casul during the brief time he lived in Alaska and he was still nervous. In fact his neighbor at the time carrying the same weapon emptied all 6 rounds into a grizzly at point blank range and it died on top of him. The neighbors had to come out and roll it off of him. True story.

9mm is what I have for EDC. Not long after they first came out, I bought a Springfield Armory Omega, chambered in 10mm. This was around 1990.
That had some oomph to it. I liked it quite a bit, but ammo became scarce and expensive, so I sold it and bought an SA XD9 subcompact. That’s one of my
EDCs now. I wish I still had that 10 mm though…..
