Tony Molina is an author, avid outdoorsman, and professional firearms trainer. Stephan invited Tony on this week's episode to discuss his book, 'Handgun Selection for Grizzly Bear Defense,' as well as the best defense strategies against bear and other large animal attacks in the backcountry.
During the episode, Tony emphasized the importance of training to become proficient in using a gun, highlighting that simply purchasing one does not make you an expert. He also stressed the significance of carrying a defense mechanism that can be deployed within 3 seconds. Handguns are the popular choice due to their accessibility and ability to meet the suggested 3-second timeframe. Tony also covered essential information about firearms, including the best ammunition for defensive purposes.
The topic of bear spray was also discussed, with Tony providing unique insights into its effectiveness. While bear spray is often successful in deterring bears, it is not foolproof and has limitations. Tony recommends carrying both a handgun and bear spray, allowing for responsible choices based on the specific circumstances.
Overall, this episode serves as an excellent resource for anyone seeking to enhance their knowledge about staying safe in bear country. You can find Tony's book, 'Handgun Selection for Grizzly Bear Defense,' on Amazon.
