[QUOTE="SdoubleA, post: 3041898, member: 32961"] Yep, spray is best. As I mentioned earlier, carry at least two cans up front and handy...one for each hand. Use in case of emergency, follow up with a suitable chaser properly located in the brain. For a decent way to test your "bear rig" do this: Go to an uncrowded indoor range. Attach a paper target to the carrier, and set at 50 feet. Secure your hand gun or long gun in a similar fashion you may be in while you are hiking or whatever. Now, have someone trip a fast retrieval on the target and see how many decent "holes" you place before the "bear" has you down. Sounds easy doesn't it? Try it a few times, and then set the carrier at 25 feet and try again. Now repeat the process with spray. Bottom line is "stay out of bear country". Enjoy them at the zoo. [B]******NO...I do not really recommend doing the above with "live" ammo or real spray. It does prove a point however.[/B] [/QUOTE]
