Just imagine how close the distance shall be, and how much time shall have elapsed should you have a secondary firearm failure and reach for your tertiary weapon? (perhaps a blade) ![]() Last edited by M118LR; 05-29-2019 at 09:00 PM. | |

Here's a story of a man using a personal weapon to kill a bear and save his own life: https://www.theguardian.com/world/20...ave-off-attack I found this looki9ng at the many stories where a knife was the saving weapon. |

Got to admit that at my age there are body parts other than my arm that I'd sacrifice shoving down a Bruins throat to make it gag. (perhaps even a Filipina Bar Girl) LOL. But it's got to be longer than a K-Bar to choke out a Polar Bear. JMHO. Yet, Polar Bruins have been on the Menu since the "Stone Age". While an atlatl is a projectile weapon, I highly doubt it makes Doughboy's minimum spec list. Yet it has proven to be more than effective in days gone bye,

M118LR, Fwiw, there is a documented 1st hand account from the early 19th century of a NA hunter throwing a light javelin (using an atlatl) in one side of a bison & out the other side. = One bison GYD. Obviously the NA knew quite a lot about killing big game with their "primitive Stone age weapons". yours, sw |
