I have/carry a Springfield 45 because that was my home defense choice before we moved back into the woods.
I am told the 45 round is too slow for moose and bear, the 10mm is preferred.
Please keep in mind these are backwoods rednecks who have lived in the woods for a long time LOL but also rather intelligent backwoods rednecks. Should I carry my 9 instead of my 45?
Should I sell everything and get a 10mm? Or just change the round I have loaded in my 45? (hollowpoints)
Some of the guys back here carry two a revolver with rubber bullets for warning shots then the 10mm for stopping the charging moose/bear or shooting at a predator like 180# cat.
I am no gun expert as you can likely tell, but I can follow along these conversations pretty well, have handled firearms my whole life etc etc
Thoughts?
