Well said! I think the two activities can utilize the same handgun, or different handguns. I want something that is concealable while hiking as my primary threat is two legged but can be four legged. A hunting handgun may wear a scope and a longer barrel which would be my choice for hunting, not as easy to conceal.Good question! There is a huge difference between a defensive outdoor handgun and a hunting handgun IMO.
A hunting handgun, I am the aggressor! I pick the time and place for the shot. I want a gun I can show t with hunting accuracy and carries a range me shot kill round. A Ruger Blackhawk in a big bore caliber is the gun I’m choosing.
In a defensive handgun, I am reacting to a threat, be it a bear, hog, cougar, or methhead. I’m wanting a semi automatic high cap gun I train with and shoot well. That’s where the 10MM
Makes sense!
