I go on trails here in SWF
We have
Panthers
Crocs
Gator
B Bear
Sharks
skunk apes
I carried a P229 40cal loaded with 180gr HST and a S&W M642 loaded with 148gr WC
Last year I switch back to a HK P30S V3 9mm and currently using rem bonded 124gr +P
I like low recoil for faster shooting . more bullets on target and with better accuracy .
