I like the Glock 20 with hard cast solution. Not what I carried when I lived in Alaska, but what I'd carry if I moved/went back.

Would you mind informing us what state you live in and how many big bears you have encountered? Typical response from the tiny-penis micro-mind crowd. Too stupid to handle the truth but always willing to sidetrack a subject with irrelevant questions. Does anyone know where I can get a adjustable stock for my marlin 60???
Then STFU. The rest of your statement is superflous bullshit with no real bearing on this discussion other than to massage your own ego. Suckin' on my titties like you wanted me.

There is a 10% off coupon on the back of a Cheerios box for adjustable Marlin stocks. Enjoy!

I'm hard pressed to believe Rick Bin approves of dla's posting, on this family forum. He has no business here.

It is very rare for Rick to really give a damn. This is proven time and again.

Honestly the way I see it is that trolls stir things up which increases post and hence traffic. More traffic means the sight is more popular and I believe hence more profitable for Rick.
I've found adding the fools to my growing list of those who will be ignored works best for me.

I believe you are spot on. On both counts.

I've already got him on ignore. I agree.

I'm sticking by my opinion based on the number of retards running loose on the campfire. I'm all for freedom and people expressing their ideas.
But I'm also for filtering out those who only come here to cause strife. Since Rick won't do that, I use the ignore function.

Just had a tall box of Cheerios. Craig seems happy.
Lou Ferrigno is awesome.
Nothing further.

On one of my trips to Alaska I carried a Blackhwak in 45 colt with heavy hard cast bullets in a chest rig. When I make it back up there in a few years I may switch to one of the short barreled Redhawks and give that a try.

Curious - what would you consider as a sidearm to carry if you were going to spend a lot of time in AK?
I know the typical magazine article will tout some sort of cannon needed as bear defense and while I understand that - I'd have to think most revolvers are carried a lot more than shot and likely never shot into claws and fur or at the least - very rarely. Something you're going to use to plink a bit, targets of opportunity and if necessary - bear/wolf/love sick moose protection...
So - ideas on a general hip companion? Thinking stainless, revolver, probably starts with a .4
And to be clear - this is totally bench racing. I'm not living there, not visiting etc - just thinking.
I'd have to think a Ruger Redhawk in 44 mag? 5.5 inch barrel? I have carried 475 Linebaugh, 44 mag, 45 Colt, and 454. All have either 4.75, 4, 5, and 5.5" barrels, are stainless, Hard Cast flat point bullets, some single action & some double action, and carried in a chest type rig. Subject to change, but these are my preferred. Currently considering a Super Redhawk with a 5" barrel in 480 Ruger. Have not made the purchase and barrel modification. I have a 454 in the Toklat model and really like it. The 480 seems about my ideal in this platform.

A short 480 DA will do it as well as anything and any shot you land well will do all you can expect of a handgun.

and carried in a chest type rig. I would guess how you carry is as important as what you carry. Is there a particular chest rig that has gained favor of those who use them?
