Remote Carry

It took me few months to get it but it can be done. It all depends the older you are the faster you get it. Buy a miners permit for few years it does the trick plus you have to be sure that nature of your job makes shotgun carry ackward

I was told to stay away from auto pistols for defense do to the fact that if you have a bear on you they tend to jam easier in the hide while a revolver will usually still fire. A tad bit over cautious but that's the reason I was given. As soon as I get a revolver I will apply and let you guys know how it goes.

If my auto jams in the hide it will be because all my mags are empty and I am beating the bear with it.
 
Then again "Pimp Daddy" riding the subway in Toronto can carry whatever he wants, whenever he wants. But by God if you want to carry in the bush you have to sign over your soul, (in blood) to the C.F.O.. What a f@cking joke!
 
If they allow wilderness carry, just think of all the gang violence that would migrate to the backcountry.

Nobody would be safe.

The city streets would be emty and there would be hikebuy shootings daily.

All the Subaru Outbacks at the trail heads would be replaced buy pimped out rice rockets...

Not one gang shooting in the bush since I got my ATC, in fact nobody has been murdered, mugged or raped either. Coincidence? They need a test program with an urban carry permit to see if they can duplicate the results. ;)
 
I'm going to have to look into this. Carrying a Trimble,lath bag,hatchet and a 12ga over the the shoulder is very cumbersome. I dont think most employers will ok wilderness carry

Hey I understand I have my pack with 4x liters of water, food, clothes, cooking stuff, first aid, etc. Then add in my maverick 88, ammo, camp axe, rock hammer, and German entrenching tool ( heavy duty pick and shovel). I can only do about two days in the bush until I need to resupply.

At the present time I bury my heavier stuff around the area I prospect so I don't need to lug it in during the warmer months. You can also do relays of gear but that eats up so much time and if you are doing this by yourself it is a big pain.

On the flip side, do you REALLY want a .45 ACP over a .44 Mag (at minimum) when possibly facing big animals? I wouldn't.
 
I guess I would actually have to have a life and death encounter to say for sure, which is unlikely. IMO the plastic gun is lighter, and has less bulk (does not hang out the side as much) so it does not get hung up on branches, etc. It is shorter than most wheel guns. It is faster to reload a 10 round magazine in an auto than it is to speed reload 6 rounds in a wheel gun for most people, if you get a chance to reload. The 45 auto also has less muzzle lift on recoil so follow up shots should be faster. If it all came down to having 1 or 2 shots at under 1 yard distance I would definately prefer the 44, but there is a lot more to consider then just that. If that was the case I would want a 12 gauge with 3 1/2 magnum slug loads, which I could carry without an ATC. The ATC just allows something not so bulky to be carried freeing up your hands to do other tasks, at the expense of firepower.
