Picked this up today. Sidearm for my son to accompany his blackpowder rifle this next deer season.
I started with a similar pistol, but the barrel was cut to 5.5”. I used it on fox squirrels, rabbits, grouse, pigeons and targets. It was my constant companion when I wasn’t in school until I bought a modern pistol, m29 when I was 16. What a great starter piece!Yeah, the carrying of a pistol while stalking or buck hunting is for general protection in emergencies. There are lots of bear where we hike the hills, and we regularly see at least two different "big cat" prints the last 5 or 6 years, so it makes sense when crawling around brushy slopes or wandering through logged areas where you might startle something big. Wish we had wild pig up this high. Lots of oaks and acorns for feed, but the winters are tough.
