Plenty of youtube footage of African PH's strapping on Glocks in preparation for a guided hunt.
They never mention model or caliber, and never elaborate on whether the hardware is precautionary against lions, poachers, or thugs.




From having owned a few Glocks myself when I lived in Africa I can tell you that they are mostly meant for protection against the two-legged variety of danger. They come in handy when delivering a coup de grace as well, from time to time.




If you can, why not.

Hunting in 1994 in Southern Zimbabwe at one non official road block had his revolver ready. A property owner had decided to have armed men Manning a roadblock on the public track. A bit of a range war going on.

Bandits, thugs, shufta, warvets, all sorts of two legged predators we luckily don't have here yet.

As a tourist one usually can't bring or carry a handgun. Attending a target shooting match might allow it? Hiking in bear country, I think one might be handy.

Hunting here with a handgun is pretty much illegal. Big stations here can get legal use. The justification is to put down stock when riding on horses or motorbikes.

I believe outfitted in the NT and possibly FNQ might get legal use. One of our DR FNQ members may have used a handgun on hunts.
