So im going camping......

If its bears you are really worried about, just bring an Air horn... Works well on smelly hippies too. Plus you dont F*ck yourselves up if you use it in close proximity to your tent and/or Family members...

Sounds to me like your more worried about the hippies. Just bring a bar of soap, hippies hate soap. :)

You should meet some of the "hippies" I know...they work in the forestry industry, are wicked with a chain saw, and are usually heavily armed to boot...but they still listen to the Grateful Dead when the work day is done!
 
Hippies are really a problem in 2009? Do I need to worry about greasers too?
What about those flappers with their gin fizz's and short hairdoos?
 
Slugs for bears but watch the hunting regs. The po-po 5-0 may feel that you are poaching. Watch yourself. You might want to get a small game license and bring buck and argue that you're out blasting raccons.

As for hippies, the best offence is a good defence. Put a "help wanted" sign near your campsite. Hippies hate work and are repelled by offers of employment.

Like I said to the "canoe guy"...

I would take a stainless 10/22 carbine with Butler Creek side folder & scope. Also pack 4 X Butler Creek Steel Lips 25 rnd mags. I would keep 1 full mag of Stingers and the rest filled with Winchester High velocity HP 333 pack. Take another 333 pack along if you are worried about a large zombie sympozium. Also may want to clamp a nice light on it for night movements...

Yep... I agree, bring a 10/22 if you want to tease a bear... but bring that 870 and a box of slugs if you want to protect yourself and your wife.

Pretty sure you are correct. I dont think you can use the self defense excuse in this situation.

At least, thats how I would expect the CO's to react here in bantario
 
I always pack slugs and birdshots. Birdshots for shooting clay during the day (also announces your arrival), slugs in the buttcuff.
 
Well im more worried about cougars than the hippies, I heard that some of the campgrounds wernt letting some people stay in tents because of the wildlife. Not sure how true that story was but better safe than sorry!
 
now that you have a good selection of advice , pick your protection , follow the transport regs and don't voluntarily talk about it to anyone.(park types etc).

If you need it (unlikely, but ) you will have it.
Have a great time......
 
i went camping about 4 weeks ago out on the trunk road south of calgary.i brought a few guns with me to do some target shooting along with my fishing.i fired off 5 shots with my .17hmr and then i heard cheering down the river about 200 yards.i then took out my cz858 and fired off 60 shots.i never heard another peep all night long and nobody came to see what it was either.these shots were fired at my target hill that the rangers said was a good backstop.

What's with all the .22 hardware??? Were you attacked by a herd of gophers when you were a small child or somethin? I still remember a dream I had (I think it was a dream) when I was 4, of being carried away by a wolf. Now I carry a big gun! Lol
 
If you're going to a park, then you should know what the firearm laws are of where you're going. My previous advise is for crownlands where shooting is allowed.
 
i'm camping and fishing alone in the bush this weekend. i'll be packing my Maverick 88 loaded with alternating buck and slug. i'll have a few bird shot rounds as well for ####s and giggles.
 
Firearms must be cased when in a national park , buckshot for large furry animals and #9 for two legged pale faced animals. One will have a long time thinking about what one has done while a doc is picking a load of #9 out of ones arse.
