I live in bear country. My back sliding doors are right next to acres of woods.
I keep bear spray in the house and a firearm in the rare case that a black bear decides to knock my sliding doors down and enter my house one night.
My question is, Is my S&W .45 cal acp handgun strong enough to take down a black bear? I recently sold a Ruger .357 mag with hollow points cause I don't trust revolvers around my 10 yr old son. No safety as the semi-auto have, like not keepin a round chambered, and having the safety on. But as I was reading some of the other posts, I'm beginning to think I made a mistake. Is my .45 strong enough?
