They say 9mm is useless against a bear, but one time I was hiking with my friend and a bear started charging. I shot her in the knee, and ran as fast as I could, and that's how I survived! 

 Will 45 work ,? 

 You mean 45th president? 

 He he 

I usually bring my 1911 when I go camping or hiking in the mountians. Hope it is enough  

 There are 9mm 1911s, eh? Beretta 

 I was talking about .45s being enough power to stop a bear. My 1911 is 45 

 Nah, buckshot is your best bet.
