Figured you would just get out there and wrestle with it!Throwing a shoe is completely effective against black bear. Most adult bear in new areas are really pretty small. Like 130-150 lbs

Skunks are far more dangerous than black bears! We had a pro. trapper at Sun Refinery in Tulsa, comew in and live trap skunks that had gotten to be a problem, and danger, to employees in the tank farm. Of course an oil company can't swat a mosquito without making the national news! He said that a law required him to kill, off site, all the skunks he traps because 80% of skunks tested in Oklahoma, carried RABIES! I think that means they can spred it without coming down with the desease!I haven't seen any bears but my inside dog has been hit twice this summer by skunks in Edmond while outside doing his business.
It would have to be one heck of a 9mm rd! I REALLY enjoy the 10mm. I consider it to be almost a .41Mag in semi or wheel.Is 9 mm effective against bear, or should one step up to .357 Magnum? Heard 10mm is good, what about .45 ACP? Inquiring city critters want to know...
I was being sarcastic haha. In all seriousness, for small black bears like we have around here, I’d feel plenty confident with my gp100 .357 with hot/heavy hardcast loads. These ain’t grizzliesNot legal for carry... LIke the idea of being prepared for anything though. We are talking about bears not velociraptors though...
My thought.that's somebody's Rottweiler
If you know (Black) bears are where you are going to be a .357 Mag will do. For the 9mm guys that buy 15-20 round clips for their handguns, you should be safe. LOL! Black Bears can be dangerous if you run into one but the bad boys are Grizzlies so when in the mountains here in Idaho I carry my .41 Mag and/or my SDS Lynx 12 gauge Shotgun with Browning Copper Sabot Slugs. I also carry a extra 5 round mag loaded with the same sabots. Just to keep the jitters away.Is 9 mm effective against bear, or should one step up to .357 Magnum?

Dang that is one small full grown bear. Bears around here average around 350-400 lbs though I have seen smaller and some larger Blacks.Throwing a shoe is completely effective against black bear. Most adult bear in new areas are really pretty small. Like 130-150 lbs
