When Fishing/hiking, Do You Carry A Handgun?

[creekin bassnerd]

no kidding that is the stupidest dung i have ever read on this forum

Smalliebigs, most the crap you write on this forum has been some of the "stupidest dung" Ive ever read.

I don't carry a gun in the wilderness unless I'm hunting and I only do that once or twice a year. Don't need one when Im fishing or hiking, what am I gonna shoot the fish and trees? I used to carry a bb gun when camping to keep the raccoons at bay, but don't anymore, havent had a coon attack in some time. Havent had a people attack in...ever. So to you pistol toters, to me you guys are the biggest threats on the river. I imagine it really strokes a man's ego to know that he has the ability to kill whatever whenever. If you want to carry a gun in the wilderness, become a game warden or some kind of law enforcement. At least they "wear their guns outside their belts for all the honest world to see"-TVZ

But whatever its your choice, my perspective is if its too dangerous without carrying a deadly weapon, then you should spend more time on the golf course, and less time in these dark, scary woods...

Did we all recently bump our heads and develop amnesia? Seems like we've had this discussion.

This ought to be good...

So no.....I don't carry a firearm. Now bladed objects.....that's a whole different story.

Yes we did and as all the repeat discussions it's really pointless. Those that carry will continue and those that don't will not.

Come to think of it I've been carring a Red Rider BB gun on every overnight trip for the last 20 years or so. I don't have any problems with coons and if I did I wouldn't shoot anyway for fear of mistaking a skunk for a coon. The BB gun has provide countless hours of entertainment plinking beer cans in camp. I went so far as to buy a higher powered pellet gun but mostly leave it at home in favor of the Red Rider. Best $20.00 I ever spent.

but you'll shoot your eye out.

Cool! Does it have the compass in the stock and this thing which tells time?

If I'm not in the mood for a little hand-to-hand, I'll just use the cyanide dart umbrella I picked it up at a KGB flea market back in the 80's.

classic Ness post!
