Well I had to run out into the dark of an Alaska fall night last night when all the dogs started going bonkers. Nothing was there as far as I could see, and chances are it was just a porcupine poking around the woods.
But the experience made me a little less confident in my current tactical setup. My go-to firearm is a Mossberg 500 with magnum 3" Brenneke slugs. It has a flip-up site in the back and a tactical light duck-taped on.
Well other than being cold and wet, my breath was creating clouds of mist in front of me, so thick that I couldn't see squat through them. The sights on the Mossy that usually work OK were very difficult to see. If there had been a charging bruin out there, I'm not sure I would have been able to hit it.
What options are there? Ghost ring sights? A red dot scope? A different firearm? I'm open to suggestions.
