B5

I carry a large calibre one (not a revolver though) in the middle pocket of my jeans.

But I only get it out when blonde "dangerous" game attack me!

Damn that happens much too often!

Stop dreaming!

No I don't. Unfortunately in most of Australia the only legitimate use of pistols is target shooting, not allowed to be used for hunting.

I think one would be very useful if bowhunting pigs.

However I have "a friend" who used a 357 with wadcutters on goats. Not very effective but fun from the hip rapid fire.

Full powered loads would have been better.

LOL,
I carry that bowie cause it's illegle to hunt with a bow in New York and carry any type of fire arm with you. Your not even allow when bow hunting to be with anyone carrying a fire arm!! (Stupid Law)

During nomal rifle season though, a pistol does come in handy!

I own a CZ75 9mm PARA wich I carry with me when hunting but only for safety reasons and not for hunting purposes.It will come in handy if you are to walk into a Leopard or something like that.Here in SAf it is against the law to hunt with a semi-auto firearm but they'll understand if it was a danger situation.
