Dean Weingarten, veteran gun writer and Arizonan, has been studying bear attacks for years and has compiled a fairly comprehensive list of incidents. He found that handguns are 97% in defending against bear attacks. He primarily uses this information to argue (correctly, less anyone get confused) that bear spray alone is not an effective way to stop bear attacks. Some people seem to think bear spray is more effective than a gun. His data is worth a read. |
