Having shuffled down this mortal coil to the point that I need to discuss the disposal of my junk, I took a poll of my family to see how many had an interest in my guns. One who lives in Colorado said he wanted a handgun that would make enough noise to scare off a grizzly. All I know about grizzlies is what I read, having never had a confrontation with one, but I would have some doubts about scaring one off. It seems to me that sometimes the bear might be annoyed by the noise and try to eliminate it. The most powerful handgun I have is a Trooper model S&W .357, a formidable piece of artillery, but I would not be comfortable using it to stop a mad bear.
Does anyone here have more experience in this area?
