Time to relax with a campfire and a cold beverage.

You're making me really miss camping! It's been a few years. Last time I went:

It's a lot of work for me and my wife anymore but we gonna give it another shot at the end of the month.

 

[Doom!]

It's gotten to where no matter where we go, it's become to crowded. We go camping to get away from the hustle and bustle and to enjoy nature. Seems anymore you can't get away from the loud abnoxious people who leave a big mess behind. I'm jealous of you guys. There are just too many people in California.

 

[Tunedfrog]

I am blessed to be living where we are and even more blessed to be retired.
Our weekend starts on a Monday and goes until Friday. Very few people are out then.

again....so jealous!

I have great memories of, Mrs. X and I, overnight camping on near desolate Poli Hale beach.

When we lived in Colorado, camping was for hunting, or scouting for the upcoming hunt.

Here in Texas, camping is for tourists.

Not bad to carry a 357. When camping in Maine.

Out west, yes, but in New England, I'm comfortable with a 9mm. I'm not concern about black bears.

I’m glad to live in VT. Whether camping here or in NH you can pack heat. With all of the news stories of campers being the victims of crime deep in the woods, I won’t be camping unarmed. BTW, you’re Blaster, right?

It ain’t the bears I’m worried about. .45 for me.

At 5'6" and 163lb, a .45 would be too much of a carry for me. If I felt that unsafe about an area, I would just sling my 12g Bulldog. Like I said, I feel very comfortable and safe with a 9mm.

Yes sir man. I love camping. At least a proper sidearm is essential. A good knife and such.

Good call. I can always stab the bears if necessary and save the .45 for miscreants. .45 ACP’s are expensive rounds…

I always sort of wanted a bullpup but I can’t shoot them because I shoot a long gun lefty. The ejector would perfectly target my face with hot brass.

Should the SHTF, and I could only take one gun, this would be my choice. It can take down big games, not destroy small games, and a solid self defense weapon with whatever is loaded in the magazine since its a semi auto.

No dont get me wrong. When we go out gotta have a sidearm, knife, back pack with all the essentials. Don't own a .45. 357 will do. I carry a MP9. Mostly like my MP9.
