Black bears are one thing, and sometimes even a joke in some areas (central florida), but a polar bear will fuck you up son.

Yeah that ridiculous recoil is hard to manage, but plenty of folks hunt large, dangerous game with big handguns without incident.  It's certainly doable if not risky, but defense situations are often a little different.

You'd have to be a pretty damn good shot to shoot a charging bear (with anything more than a superficial wound I mean) with a pistol even at a distance of 15-25 yards. That bear would be coming straight for you which would make you nervous and impede accuracy. 15 yards is about where I'd draw the line where if I hadn't inflicted critical wounds by that point, I might as well turn the gun on myself and spare myself the agony of being ripped apart.

I think honestly if you took a group of just random people and all had them play out this scenario only a handful would have the nessecary skill to take the bear down before it could reach them, and you'd have a few more who got lucky shots. I think the majority would be mauled. That's how I see things going down. I am not lucky and I know I lack the skill to hit a fast moving target in critical areas from a distance that would be safe.

Unless you're a true marksman, you are not hitting anything critical without some level of luck beyond 30 or 40 yards with a pistol. At the 80 or 90 yard line, you're just wasting your ammo. So basically you have to just sit there and let this bear charge in until it's close enough to be effective.

That's my take on the scenario. Based on my experience with firearms (ranging from .22 pistols to m1903's and Garand M1's) and tying it in with common knowledge.

I am a man of peace. For the baby bear, I would smuggle a piece of fruit with a little ketamine in it and wait for it to pass out. For mom. I would sooth her with my incredible powers of seduction, and eventually seduce her into having insane man-bear sex with me. Ah yes, if that were to occur, the mountains would truly shake and tremble!
