Props to this brave 11 year old boy..meanwhile I look over on the couch and my 13 year old boy is builing a castle on Minecraft
Birdshot from a pump action shotgun did the bear in after the first shot un phased it, the boy stood his ground and took it down as it charged towards family.

I'd like to see a 9mm do that.

Exactly. You need 45 ACP

 

[MilesTeg]

Exactly. You need 45 ACP

My thoughts exactly. The extra bullet weight really helps with penetration.

That's it birdshots going in the home defense gun now.

I only carry 32acp for bears. The lighter weight with lower velocity help reduce the aerodynamic slipstream which upon impact causes immediate increased penetration to allow the bullet to travel further creating larger permanent cavities as the bullet tumbles and slows down. Much better than any rifle round in comparison. It has to do with the drag coefficient to bullet weight ratio as it travels supersonic speed.

Only if you reverse the polarity of the bolt carrier, and modulate the hollowpoints to match the phase of the muscle tissue.....

Just in..".Parents of 11 year old arrested for not securing shotgun as child shoots bear. . Couple are being extradited to NY to face charges and possible imprisonment. Animal rights group also looking into the matter. Child to be held in foster home pending outcome of Grand jury." It's true...saw it on CNN...even piers morgoon liked it........NOT..

Read some of the idiotic comments for story. People never stop amazing me. If they were invading the bears space may be the person who commented should self remove from planet earth. After all the animals were here first no matter where you built your house
