Many parts of the US prohibit carrying firearms in the wilderness. This is particularly true of National Parks.
On the off-chance of being attacked by a bear or some other large creature while camping/backpacking there, do you think its possible to incapacitate them with a Taser?
Anyone's thoughts on this?
1. Tasers are short range, single shot and require controlled activation. They work well if backed up with a shotgun.
2. I carry a 10" AOW pump shotgun in the pack.
2. Don't ask, don't tell - carry a big bore hand gun.
3. Pepper spray - at least 4 oz.
4. The 15 minute road flare mentioned is not above consideration. At least you will have 15 minutes to get your personal effects in order if the threat is human.
