When timber cruising laying out cut blocks or checking timber cut blocks - checking tree planting plots gets an 'inspector' injured or killed, now and then. Also, when fishing salmon streams, a heavy handgun at the side would feel "encouraging". Hiking in the bush, a handgun would be nice insurance and lighter & handier than a shotgun.
Bowhunting is the biggest reason in my area..or checking fences on a ranch.. or hiking/backpacking to a high mtn summer lake to go fishing.. lots of reasons really.. these are just a few..
