Do you have a hand gun handy when you are in the field with your favorite rifle??
What do you carry?
Ever use it to save yerself??
I went small game hunting today, whilst walking back into the woods with my little terrier on a leash (he is so dumb that if I ever let him off the leash it would be the last I ever saw him) another fellow comes up the trail with five medium pit bull terriers running (no leash) ahead of him.
The pit bulls see me and lunch and come on over to investigate. We were off the trail and down a hill about fifty feet.
I had a rifle on a sling (trying out a new carry sling). Their owner does not catch up until all five are walking around me, brushing up against me, sniffing my dog and scaring the hades out of me.
I pulled my 9mm revolver and prepared for the worst. First growl or bite and I was going to unload.
Fortunately, the owner began calling them back and one by one they went back down the trail. He had to do some serious yelling at the dogs, they were not what you call well trained.
I usually carry a Browning HP in a shoulder rig but lately I have been carrying a j frame in 9mm in a belt holster. Sure would have had to make every shot count today
