And you and I will not be any better for it either.

if you are walking with Bow in hand and an arrow ready to draw,, I mean, wouldn't it be easier/faster to draw the arrow rather than put down the Bow and reach for your T-2Winny or a Dirty Harry crack pipe? Or is this while you are gutting?

I think if you are Bow hunting you should pack a sabre,, sorta the same spirit of the hunt. Quiet and lethal.

I'd go with .45.

Is T-2 Arny or the melty molten dude who shatters when it gets chilly?

yes, both

perhaps a liquid nitrogen gun would be sufficient bar protection

don't see why that is a problem.

I only go in the bush if I'm riding on an atv or in a side by side.

pulling a trailer with the nitro gun should be no prob. just stick it beside the generator, fuel tanks, corb lund discography, and the 10" red hot thriller.

To answer the OP. No. What made you think so?

Good question, but a bigger one than I'm willing to venture into at this point.

First thing. Probably best to ignore the smart set trying to hijack your thread. They don't hunt.....

Second thing. Here's a list of your best possible protection in grizz country while hunting.

1. Brain
2. Brain
3. Brain
4. Spray
5. Brain
6. Shotgun
7. Brain
8. Prayers
9. Brain
10. Handgun

I hope this helps.

i have to disagree with you on this one elk. when i am out fishing along the nsr in edm. i always have a knife on my belt. i don't wear it cause i'm a vigilante but because it comes in handy and might be usefull in an emergency. the city of edm. has a bylaw against carrying a knife and though i consider myself a responsible adult i'm not about to start writing letters to have the law changed. there can be a huge difference between the "letter of the law" and the "intent of the law".

Carrying a knife while fishing is a bit different level than carrying a restricted firearm while hunting....I carry a pocket knife for opening boxes at work, some of my work involves going to customers in the City of Edmonton.

Carrying a handgun while hunting....contravenes the intent of a ATT, cannot legally hunt with a handgun, cannot legally discharge a handgun other than at an approved range, etc.....etc.....

Violating a city bylaw concerning knives, is a far different situation than violating a federal firearms law. They fall under entirely different jurisdictions, and the penalties for conviction of a violation are much different in severity.

Comparing the two offenses is like comparing not wearing a seatbelt to impaired driving.

[chasingtail]

I would like to know what the charges, possibly fine, jail time would be for carrying a restricted weapon while in the bush?

I've only been attacked by a bar a few times but was able to wrasslem good. I'm nun to worries aboot hippies ( just kick them) and tererereists, but if the zombies come alive I want that rifle Arnie has in T1 ( you know the one he flips around to reload while jumping the bridge with his hog) and a glock.

island hippies the most dangerous type...

I could be wrong but I think the OP is trying to make is this.Your allowed to carry a rifle while out hunting which is far more deadly than a handgun,why should it be against the law to carry a handgun?a gun is a gun is a gun.Yet so many argue one should be allowed and the other not.

If this is the case....then why not a full auto AR with a 50 round plus mag?

i agree with you completly but that was the point i was making. i don't really see the problem with carrying a sidearm in grizzly country in case of an emergency even though it is illegal (i wouldun't but only because the sidearm is travelling with you when your not in actually in griz country, even if it's locked in your truck). i,m not going to suggest to anyone that they should be able to choose which laws they think they can ignore but as a responsible adult we all have to make decisions in our daily lives and be prepaired to face the consequences if we break a law (minor or major). meanwhile i'll continue to wear a knife on my belt while fishing even though i might get a fine one day.

Absolutely why not? What the hell are you going to hurt out in the boonies with such a firearm. It isn't even likely you'll run into a panty wetter.

Exactly ,If you are already deemed to be a responsible person(pal)you should be able to carry whatever you want.The problem is there are so many trying to devide firearms into to many different catagories and if they dont want to carry one or the other than they think noone else should be able to either.This devide in ranks is why we will probably never be allowed to hunt with handguns or carry for protection while bowhunting.

And it certainly doesn't help our cause when people simply choose to ignore the firearms laws, and carry whatever firearm they choose, whenever they please. It makes firearms owners as a whole appear to be irresponsible, and untrustworthy, as far as the general public is concerned.

Anyone else feel like blowing off the "opinion" of someone who starts a whiney thread and then never bothers to come back to participate in the discussion? LOL
